Hester try keeps Navan top of AIL Div 2C

Navan made the long trip to Bruff today for the AIL Div 2C game and maintained their winning form with a solid display that produced a 15-8 victory with Harry Hester claiming a second-half try.

Navan were ahead by 8-3 at the interval and were pegged back to level terms soon after the resumption when Bruff got over for a try.

However, displaying great character and determination Navan regained the lead when Harry Hester stormed over for a try and Declan Bannon added the conversion.

Only one other game was played in 2C today with Sligo, who visit Navan on the final day of the season, beating Rainey Old Boys by 17-13 to stay in title touch. All the other games were postponed.

Navan will host Kanturk next Saturday at Balreask Old.
