Garbally crowned Connacht Schools Golf Champions

There was a time in Connacht Schoolboys Golf when it was dominated by St. Joseph's College, Garbally, Ballinasloe but it is over a decade since they have had any major successes. At Ballinrobe on Wednesday they announced their return by taking the Irish Junior Schools provincial title with 3 points to spare over defending champions, Summerhill College, Sligo. The winning team of Tom Cafferky, Charlie Mooney and Hugh Killeen finished with a best two card total of 72pts (39 & 33) which saw Garbally edge out Summerhill and Presentation Athenry who both had matching 69s (36, 33) with Summerhill claiming second place on the back 9 of the best card.​
