Queen's defeated Garda College 1-18 to 2-12 after extra time to win the Ryan Cup final in Dublin on Tuesday.

Down man James McGovern scored Queen's goal in the clash at Ballymun Kickhams and helped the Belfast team earn their first Ryan Cup title in seven years.

James McCartan is again in charge of Queen's this year and the team includes his brothers Eoin and Dan.

The QUB side also included Derry men Gerard O'Kane and Gavin Donaghy plus Antrim player Kevin McGourty.

Queen's will hope to add the Sigerson Cup title to the Ryan Cup in February.

Well done to Wee James and the lads.
I'd assume the hatfield was wrecked last night then.

Anyone have a better match report? Laoisgaa perhaps?

Would I be correct in thinking that the last piece of sliverware they 'lifted' was the Sigerson Cup which belonged to the Poly at the time.  It mysteriously reappeared early one morning in the Holylands.

Correct me if I am wrong.

Kevin is the VP for Clubs and Services and is therefore eligable to play, no idea about Dan McCartan

Aye you just can't beat the field trip, i had a 3 month stay in Holland then 11 days in Barcelona.  lethal.  oh and a weekend in limerick ( i think that was the best).

As far as the hatfield is concerned, umgola ur right they should be ashamed,  let the Ormeau boys do it themselves

I think El cuervo laid a trap for every fresher coming up to turn them into Alcoholics, did a good job too. Although I was always a good boy in my short distinguished uni career.
