Our new 1st years announced themselves with a bang. A team of Cathal Fynes, Liam McAtamney, Cillian Ryan and Max Gallant racing to a memorable victory when wearing the school colours for the first time.
 
In the final race of the day our Senior team of Tom Collier, Conrad Latham, Donagh Kirwan and Rafa Almeida had a runaway win. In between the Intermediate team of Liam Mancini, Daire Quigley, Theo Duffy and James Smith were 3rd in a very competitive race to the line.
