There were big celebrations in Downings last night after local duo Ronan Gallagher and Johnny McGroddy helped DCU to their sixth Sigerson Cup.
Their team had an impressive 1-16 to 3-6 win over Dublin rivals UCD.
Gallagher played at centre half-back while McGroddy was sprung off the bench for the final ten minutes.
“A proud day for the Parish – not one but two Sigerson Cup winners in the club,” Downings posted on their social media pages last night.
“Well done to Ronan and Johnny, the only Donegal GAA representatives on the DCU panel this evening. A remarkable achievement for the lads. Maith Sibh.”
Meanwhile, Termon native Bobby McGettigan was among the UCD substitutes.
