Our young soccer stars sadly exited the Doherty Cup, falling to favourites St. Colum's. The boys began the match in great style and took the game to St. Colum's in the first half. After surviving some early pressure it was St. John's who took the lead before halftime, with a well taken goal by Owen Benson. The opposition realised they were in a real game and upped the tempo in the second half. A couple refereeing decisions did not go our way and St. Colm's scored from the resulting free kicks. Unfortunately we could not get a foothold in the game again and St. Colum's ran out worthy winners. Not to worry as our young footballers get another crack of the whip against Hezlett in the Doherty Shield in February.
