Academy’s ladies, who stepped up to Division 2 this season seem to be acclimatising well. They won their second match of the season on Monday and have now taken 10 points from a possible 12 in their first two matches. On paper, Monday’s match away against St Ursula’s 1 looked to be one of their trickier assignments. They were aided buy the opposition only being able to field three players, thereby forfeiting half the possible points on offer. However, this shouldn’t detract from the convincing performance in the other three pairings which gained the Ladies all six points.
Academy’s Men also continued their resurgent form following their opening day defeat with a battling 5-1 win away at Severnvale. Captain Mark commented that despite the comfortable scoreline this had been much closer than it appears with at least half of the pairings going to deciders and the scoreline in a number of games passing 21.
