The U15 soccer team started their league campaign on Thursday v Maynooth CC.
Despite early dominance, St. Mary’s CBS conceded the first goal from a quick counterattack. The boys responded immediately with a neat finish from Jack Cleland after some good work from Ethan Neilon. David Wajrak added a quick second when he was first to a rebound. Ethan’s powerful shot was deflected in to add a third.
Maynooth fought back but a second from Jack Cleland left it 4-3 to Portlaoise at the break. The boys finally made their dominance count and pulled away in the last quarter with goals from Dan Downey and two more from MOTM Jack Cleland.
Final score 7-3 to St. Mary’s CBS. Well done all.
