UCC 0-16 St. Mary’s 1-9UCC claimed the Sigerson Cup after a four point victory over a gallant St Mary’s outfit on Wednesday night. It was St Mary’s who opened the scoring courtesy of Shane McGuigan’s effort in the opening minute. St Mary’s opted to operate with Cathair McKinney as a permanent sweeper in order to frustrate UCC, but a place ball effort from the excellent O’Shea levelled procedures. An outstanding effort from O’Shea brought the sides level and St Mary’s were opting to bring 15 players behind the ball at times, which made life very difficult for the UCC forward line. The gap had been down to one point before St Mary’s were dealt a major blow when Aaron Boyle was sent off to leave his side a man down heading into the final quarter.
