Naas full back Charlie Murphy drives out of defense as St Jarlath's Tuam Alan Banks gives chase during the Masita All-Ireland Post Primary Schools Hogan Cup Semi Final played at Tubber GAA, Co Offaly.
Naas CBS advanced to the All-Ireland final of the Hogan Cup following an emphatic victory over Connacht champions St Jarlath's Tuam, in a game played at Tubber GAA Headquarters in Offaly.
Playing against a near storm force gale Naas opened with a goal after some 40 seconds when a move saw them cut through the middle of the opposition defence ending with Niall Dolan firing low to the net.
A second goal arrived after elevent minutes, this time Sean Broderick making his way in on goal and again, keeping the ball low, made no mistake to make it 2-1 to 0-2.
By half time the lead stood at 2-6 to 1-3 after Jarlath's had scored a somewhat fortuitious goal.
With the wind on their backs Naas totally dominated throughout, working extremely hard they dominated all over the pitch and in the end had no less than 16 points to spare as they advanced to the All-Ireland final on St Patrick's Day in Croke Park where they will meet St Brendan's College Killarney (Kerry) who defeated St Mary’s Magherafelt (Derry) by two poionts, 1-10 to 1-8.
