Club Youth: CE Bowman Cup Final.

by

, , ,

Belfast Metropolitan College claimed the CE Bowman Cup on Saturday afternoon at Ravenhill after beating Randalstown 24 – 7 in  the final. 

The teams had met at the end of March in the league play off finals with the Belfast side edging that game by a point but the students put a bit more distance between the teams this time out, outscoring their opponents by four tries to one.

Having said that, Randalstown contributed fully to an entertaining game played at a high standard and it could have been a lot closer if the cherry and whites had taken their chances.

As it was, the Met clocked up a 14 – 0 lead in the first half with tries from Stuart Wightman and Andrew Smyth, both converted by Rhys Cobain

Randalstown responded through a converted Stefhan Gabbidon-Lyttle try at the start of the second half to reduce the score to 14 – 7 but it was Belfast Met that were able to push on. 

Ross Warren and Jack Harper both crossed in the final quarter to consolidate the win and league and cup double for the Met.
