Excitement levels were high as the prep boys played their first ever hockey match versus Rathgar Junior School. In an evenly contested game the boys initially found things difficult against a solid Rathgar team but eventually found their feet to emerge on top. Phillip Cox pulled the strings in midfield, Jonathan Sisson was solid at the back and Sean Mufaro Rusike showed some nice skill up front. After conceding the first goal, we reset ourselves and goals from Phillip and Sam Marshall proved enough to secure the win.
