On Tuesday afternoon The Kingspan Stadium hosted the first semi final between Rainey Endowed School and The Royal School Armagh. The sun shone and a stiff breeze was initially in Rainey’s favour.
Armagh gained field position early on and from a driving maul Bailey Russell detached and dived over in the left corner to put Armagh 5-0 up in less than 2 minutes.
Rainey fought back. Lorcan McClarnon stepped back inside on the halfway line and found a gap in the Armagh defence. He sprinted in to dive under the posts. Owen O’Kane’s conversion put Rainey 7-5 to the good on 9 minutes.
