Carrick went into a 1st minute lead through an Ethan McIlroy penalty goal. Regent replied in the 12th minute with a Jadg McKenna try, converted by Zac Campbell.

In poor conditions, there was no further scoring and Regent lead 7-3 at the break.

Only 2 minutes into the 2nd half McIlroy was shown a red card for a dangerous tackle and it was uphill for Carrick after this.
