It's only the school's second ever Leinster senior football ‘A’ title.

Coláiste Mhuire Mullingar have secured only their second ever Leinster senior football ‘A’ title with a three-point victory over over Ardscoil na Trionóide of Athy over the weekend.

A Paul Keating goal just before the end of the 1st period of extra time proved decisive, as it left the Westmeath school four points up heading into the second period.

Despite a black card to Michael Moloney, Coláiste Mhuire were able to close out a 3-10 to 1-13 victory to end their long 42 year wait.

Manager Brian Murtagh praises his sides determination to force the extra time when his side looked to be heading for defeat.


Coláiste Mhuire's attention now turns to the Hogan Cup semi final where they will face Mayo school St. Colman’s Claremorris.
