Wesley claim the double

Wesley did the doubl yesterday at Grange Road, taking both Senior and Minor titles. They comfortably took the main event against a spirited High School side. The Ballinteer school had most of the posession but found High School's goalkeeper Gareth Carragher and defence of Robbie McGuinness, Paul O'Kelly and Niall Noonan in resolute form.

Wesley, though, broke the deadlock nearing half-time when Karl Eggert got a touch to Karl Chapple's long ball. Brian Doherty added two drag-flicks in the second half for a comfortable 3-0 win.

In the under-14 final, Wesley beat Sutton Park 2-1, denying them their first-ever hockey trophy. Andrew Malcolm gave Wesley the lead before Mark Ryan equalised for Sutton from a short corner.

Wesley, though, grabbed the winner in the closing minutes with Jonathan Lewis sweeping into the Sutton goal for the winner to defend the Minor trophy.

In the minor cup wesley played very well and deserved there win but it was a very even game and sutton must be very dissapointed as they beat this team 5-1 before this year.
