The U14 soccer team were delighted to visit the Markets Field last Friday evening to showcase their silverware during half-time of the Treaty United v UCD match. They also had the opportunity to meet some of the Treaty players after their final home game this season.
The Hazelwood College u-17 Soccer squad got their season off to a winning start in the First Round of the FAI Munster Cup. A brilliant end to end game to watch with each team enjoying periods of dominance. Hazelwood fought hard to recover from 3-1 deficit to win 5-4 minutes from the end with extra time looming. Scoring on the day were Paul Murphy, Sean O’Flynn, Ryan Sheehan and Evan O’Riordan

Hazelwood College, Dromcollogher 3-2 Blessington Community College (AET)
Johnny Power (43, 76), Muiris McCarthy (47)
Senan Fishier (3 pen, 45)
Limerick side Hazelwood College managed to outwit Leinster Champions Blessington Community College in a pulsating Cup tie in Killavilla United FC, Roscrea this afternoon (Thursday, September 19).
In energy sapping conditions, the Dromcollogher scholars came from behind twice to take the game to extra time. It took a sensational effort to win the contest and Johnny POWER delivered deep into added time.
A hugely disappointing end to proceedings for the Wicklow outfit who were technically excellent in the first half. Their endeavours were rewarded with a brace from the impressive Senan FISHER. The youngster converted from the spot after three minutes and followed this up midway through the second half for his brace.
Blessington’s early penalty call set them up nicely for some excellent football. They nearly doubled their tally on nine minutes when Zach Geogegan came agonisingly close at the far post.
It remained 1-0 to Jonathan Dowling’s team at half-time.
Hazelwood didn’t come out of the block until the second period as they certainly intensified their attacking options and showed some real style.
Gary Murphy went close on 42 minutes but the breakthrough came a few seconds later for Hazelwood when Johnny POWER finished off superbly to equalise, 1-1.
It was Murphy again on the ball as his shot came off the underside of the crossbar on 45 minutes. Blessington hit them on the counter and Senan FISHER slotted home a wonderful strike to give the Wicklow students the lead again, 2-1.
It was end to end action at this stage.
The Wicklow advantage was short-lived as Muiris McCARTHY pounced to make it 2-2, two minutes later. Dromcollogher were not giving up!
Jamie Power had a brilliant opportunity to give Blessington the lead but the ball went wide of the target five minutes from time.
The game ended 2-2.
There was no clear cut chances for either side in the first period of extra-time but a Johnny POWER special four minutes from the final whistle produced an audacious goal. He struck a corner kick and scored direct to win the game for Hazelwood! A dramatic conclusion to a fabulous game.
The Limerick school will now face Pobalscoil Ghaoth Dobhair in the FAI Schools First Year ‘B’ Boys National Cup decider on Wednesday, October 2 at 1pm. Venue to be confirmed.
