Coola PPS win Connacht senior soccer title

Coola Post Primary School (Sligo) are celebrating a FAI Schoolgirls Connacht senior cup title following Friday morning's 1-0 victory over St Joseph's Secondary School, Foxford, at McGowan Park in Enniscrone.

Orlaith Scanlon's first-half goal proved to be Coola's matchwinner.

The Sligo school has enjoyed back-to-back Connacht U17 cup titles in recent seasons - and this senior girls team is a product of those successes.

Coola now move onto an National Cup semi-final - which will be played this Monday (Jan 20th) at the home of Maree-Oranmore FC in Galway.

Coola's opponents will be the Munster champions, Midleton College from Cork.

Donegal's Pobalscoil Ghaoth Dobhair will meet the eventual winners of that semi in the national decider.

They beat Gaelcholáiste Reachrann (Dublin) 1-0 in Thursday's semi-final.
