U.17's ADVANCE IN LEINSTER PLATE

The U.17's who are waiting to play their Leinster Final took on Rathdrum in Rd.1 of the Leinster Plate . It was a changed Wexford line-up but none the less they came out of the blocks in startling fashion and before half time had a 14-0 lead with tries from Jordan Ryan and Dylan Joyce-Ahearne. Both were converted by Jack O'Connor. A further try early in the second-half by Ciaran Kavanagh again converted by Jack O'Connor stretched the lead to 21-0. However, Wexford then proceeded to take their foot off the accelerator, and a lax defence led to Rathdrum bridging the gap to 21- 12. In the closing minutes, Rathdrum again broke the Wexford line and ran in for a try in the corner, which went unconverted, leaving Wexford to scrape a 21-17 win.

Team: Craig Wright, Jordan Ryan, Daragh Keogh, Colm O'Corcora, Michael McQuilan, Jack O'Connor, Dylan Joyce-Ahearne, Mark Takacs, Stephen Dwyer, Zack Corish, Dan French, Johnny Craicun, Ciaran Kavanagh, Dylan Lawlor, James Roche.
Subs: Carl Walsh, Liam Hartigan, Robbie Edwards, Michael Maguire.
