Our Lady and St Patrick’s College, Knock, played their first competitive Ulster Schools fixture on Wednesday afternoon at Antrim Grammar in an Ulster Schools Bowl Qualifying Group Match.
As part of the new mix for the Ulster Schools Cup OLSP, Antrim Grammar, Wellington College and Carrickfergus Grammar will play a round robin competition to determine their entry level for the subsidiary schools competitions, yesterday’s match being the first of the series.
The schools competition newcomers OLSP stole a march on the competition by recording a 17 – 22 win at Antrim Grammar in an entertaining if somewhat damp match.
The match had just started on our arrival and the teams were largely testing each other out in a fairly error strewn first ten minutes, both teams overreaching in an attempt to lay down a marker.
