Dolphin took their unbeaten home run in the AIB League to 12 matches by outlasting Blackrock College at Musgrave Park.

Aided by a strong wind, the Cork side carved out a 14-7 half-time
advantage with lock Chris Rowe and winger Paul Hurley scoring
converted tries.

Tries in each half from winger Shane Monahan, taking his try-scoring haul for the league campaign to eight, kept Blackrock in contention, but an unconverted effort from Munster back-rower Nick Williams was enough to see Dolphin home.

Scorers:

Dolphin: Tries: Chris Rowe, Paul Hurley, Nick Williams; Cons:
Barry Keeshan 2.

Blackrock College: Tries: Shane Monahan 2; Con: Darragh Fitzpatrick; Pen: Darragh Fitzpatrick.
