Leinster Hockey Association Senior Cup


Congratulations to The High School Senior 1 hockey team which defeated Loreto High School Beaufort 2-0 to qualify for the semi-final of the Leinster Hockey Association Schoolgirls Senior Cup. The team along with the entire school were all enthusiastically awaiting the match. We couldn’t wait to get on the pitch and play our hearts out. 
 As the whistle blew to begin the match our supporters did not fail to supply us with encouraging chants throughout. The HSD panther even made a special appearance!
A short corner goal executed by Zoe Dunne in the first quarter gave us a lead heading into the rest of the match. We were constantly hungry for another goal which resulted in many short corners and great passages of play. With minutes left in the match Ella Pasley sent an incredible shot into the back corner of the goal securing us a 2-0 lead.
The final whistle blew and the crowd burst into cheers. The team huddled together celebrating their victory while singing their hearts out.
