St Attracta’s Connacht Senior A Championship final is set to take place on Saturday week, March 3.
The Tubbercurry school defeated St Gerald’s of Castlebar by 3-12 to 1-7 in yesterday’s semi-final, to book their place in a sixth successive Senior A final between the league and championship competitions.
They will face Westport’s Rice College in the decider after the Mayo students beat St Jarlath’s of Tuam by 2-16 to 1-13 in yesterday’s other semi-final.
The same two schools also clashed in this year’s Senior League final, with St Attracta’s winning by 2-8 to 1-7 on that occasion, but the Sligo side have lost the last two championship deciders.
Head coach Colm McGee says the league win won’t count for much on Saturday week…
