Sligo RFC stay top after Bective win



Sligo remain top of Division 2C of the All-Ireland League, after extending their unbeaten run away to Bective Rangers in Donnybrook on Saturday.

First half tries from Michael Wells and Mark Butler, and a conversion from Jack Keegan, had the visitors 12-0 at the break in Dublin.

And Matthew Cosgrove went over for a third Sligo try after the restart, as they ran out deserving 17-7 winners.

The Ross Mannion-coached side are now unbeaten in their first five games in the All-Ireland League this season – three of which have been away from home.

They are three points clear at the top of the table heading into next Saturday’s home game against Cork side Midleton in Strandhill.

Kick-off in Hamilton Park next weekend is at 2.30pm.
