Just one Wexford native has been named in the Fitzgibbon Cup team of the year.
Even though the Model County had a strong contingent representing their colleges in this years’ competition, St Martins’ Joe O’Connor is the only representative named on their ‘Rising Stars’ team of the year.
In particular, Carlow IT’s Cathal Dunbar, along with DCU’s Padraig Foley should count themselves unlucky after terrific campaigns with their respective colleges.
