Presentation College Glasthule easily negotiated their first hurdle in the Junior Cup at Palmerstown.
Their main strength lay in the backline where Gary Hayes, David Dowling, James Darcy and John Flood all made strong contributions. In fact, Dowling, Darcy (2) and Hayes got in for Glasthule's four tries.
Trailing 24-5 at the break, Kells came out with renewed purpose and added a penalty try to Simon Donnelly's first-half effort.
