Chisom Ugwueru’s hat-trick propels UL Bohs to women’s AIL crownHarrison Brewer’s journey from Leinster to Japan culminates in another Terenure final

Ugwueru’s strong finish put Bohs ahead before the lead was exchanged four times by half-time, as the Limerick team responded to tries by Railway’s Kayla Waldron and Maddy Aberg with tries by Éabha Nic Dhonnacha and Aoife Corey, the latter pouncing on Flannery’s crosskick to score her 20th try of the campaign.Ugwueru’s second by the corner flag, after several video reviews, extended UL Bohs’ lead but, typical of this game, Railway captain Niamh Byrne scored.

The remarkable Peat followed up another try to trim UL Bohs’ lead to 34-33 with another charge before Corey’s try-saving tackle denied Railway winger Ava Ryder in the corner, the fullback then making a vital intercept as well. That was the turning point, Ugwueru completing her hat-trick from half-way from a clever cross kick by Flannery, who then created Corey’s second and landed both conversions. A sniping finish by Ailsa Hughes was a small consolation for Railway, but at least made for a fairer final scoreline.
