St Andrew's College 13 Wesley College 9:IT WAS very much a match of two halves, St Andrew's making better use of the wind to build a 13-point lead against Wesley in the Leinster Schools Vinnie Murray Senior Cup semi-final at Seapoint RFC yesterday.
Wesley can have no arguments really as the winners carved out two tries from prop Stephen Locke and left wing Luke de Renzy, prompted by the leadership of captain Killian McCarthy.
Wesley did come right back into it with three penalties by outhalf Tim Hawe but they just could not break down a well-drilled St Andrew’s defensive unit after the break.
