Two Boyle men on Rising Stars Team

Congratulations to Boyle men Tadhg Lowe and Enda Smith who have been selected on the Higher Education Rising Stars Team 2015.

They are joined by another Roscommon man, Colin Compton from Strokestown.

After two memorable weekends in Munster hosted by University College Cork and Limerick IT, DCU eventually came out on top after extra-time against the hosts and holders UCC in the Sigerson Cup final while it took a replay for UL to overcome reigning champions WIT in the Fitzgibbon Cup.

The Garda College, Ulster University Magee & Mater Dei also claimed Higher Education Football Championships in 2015 while Trinity College, Galway/Roscommon ETB & John Moores University (Liverpool) were successful in the Senior Hurling competitions.

In terms of counties, Roscommon and Kerry both have the most representatives on the football team (3 each) while in the hurling Tipperary lead the way with five selections, the most of any county.

Those selected will be honoured at a function on the evening of Tuesday, April 28 in Croke Park.
