VEC Colleges County Final- Hazelwood College record yet another victory

The U16 VEC Colleges County Final was contested between Hazelwood College Dromcollogher and Colaiste na Trocaire of Rathkeale recently.

The man of the match was Jack Fitzgibbon who showed tremendous leadership throughout the game and scored some great points. At the end of the game Hazelwood were victorious on a decisive scoreline of 4-15 to 1-5.
