Dromore High School ran out comfortable winners for the seventh year in succession, scoring six tries in their 37- 7 win over Slemish College.

Slemish College kicked off and had an early chance with a penalty for offside. Unfortunately full back David McWhirter put the kick wide and the experienced Dromore side began to dominate the opening exchanges.

After approximately ten minutes the High School took the lead with scrum half, and Man of the Match, Lee Steenson sniping over the line after a bullocking run by Dromore captain Andrew Black. Steenson converted his own try.
