A very much depleted Naomh Brid team managed to concede two penalties and still beat promotion contenders with a skeleton side to record one of the finest victories for the Blue and Gold in adult ranks to date. Full credit to the senior panel who bounced back from the championship defeat to outscore the visitors to Harlequins 0-13 to 2-6. The hosts battled into a wind bolstered by a few choice words from manager MacSherry at half-time to turn around a 3-point deficit into a 1-point victory. Best for Naomh Brid were O’Hagan, Loughrey, McCann and Marley.
