First Year Basketball

Hazelwood College took on Castletroy College on Monday March 5th in Dromcollogher. The Hazelwood girls continued their winning ways with a final score of 23-11 to Hazelwood. It was a tough match with excellent performances from both sides but Hazelwood stayed focused on their task and came out on top. Big thanks to Castletroy College for their great effort and well done to both teams.
