Banbridge moved to second place in the AIL 1B with a win against St Mary’s College Dublin at Rifle Park on Saturday afternoon.
It was a dour opening half hour in this one as both sides tested each others defence. However the game sprang to life when St Mary’s Ruairi Shields gleefully collected a neat little grubber from Conor Dean to score the games first try. Paddy O’Driscoll converted to give the the visitors a seven point lead.
Banbridge responded almost immediately and a clever move off the back of a line out saw John Porter break clear for a well worked try. Adam Doherty converted and the teams turned round with the score at 7 each.
The second half moved along at a better pace. A flurry of penalties saw Mary’s in front 10 – 13 with O’Driscoll knocking over two to Doherty’s one. However Bann edged in front after a wonder try from Josh Cromie, who broke from the halfway line to score an unconverted try.
Mary’s edged in front minutes later as O’Driscoll knocked over his third penalty and a tense final quarter ensued. However, Doherty landed a late penalty to decide the game in Banbridge’s favour, to the delight of the large crowd.
