Video: Barron Leads Rockwell’s Title Defence

We catch up with Rockwell College Captain Diarmuid Barron who previews the Munster Schools Senior Cup competition that kicks off next week.

Tipperary hooker Barron was part of the Rockwell College Squad that claimed the 106th Munster Schools Senior Cup title last season and begins the defence of this year’s campaign against Bandon Grammer School next Thursday at Clanwiliam Park.

As Rockwell College set out for a two in a row title Barron insists that his squad are not looking past the first round of the Cup and acknowledges the competitive nature of the competition.
