UCC Women's Rugby win SSI Cup

27 Mar 2025

UCC 26-24 Carlow

UCC Women's Rugby emerged victorious yesterday at St. Clare's DCU after a pulsating drama-filled overtime game. UCC tied up the game to send it to overtime and repeated the feat again in overtime by scoring a late try to win. Congratulations to all involved.

Kudos to the Women's squad. After winning their cup they all returned to DCU Morton Stadium and filled the area with noise and cheers as the UCC J1 men and UCC Bulldogs had close defeats. In particular the J1s in the Brendan Johnston Final when they had a chance to win it all with a last-seconds conversion from the sideline but it fell short under the crossbar. Congratulations to DCU on their 35-34 win but it was an agonising defeat for the UCC boys.

TUS defeated the UCC Bulldogs 33-24 in a tough day at the office for UCC against a very large and physical TUS.
