It was a battle of Portlaoise Parish in the final of our Round 1 matches with Holy Family facing The Heath NS.
Holy Family have six members on their team and representing them in this quiz was Lily-Rose Delaney, Ari Ajayi and Sarah Ging.
The Heath had John O’Hara, Finn Moore and Conall Lalor – the latter being a proud Portlaoise man but firmly in the black and amber for this one.
The sides could not be split in the opening three rounds which finished three points apiece.
But The Heath got the better of their opponents in the final round to take the win in the end.
The Heath now go through to Round 2 where one more win will book their place in our Grand Final in the Dunamaise Arts Centre on Friday, March 1.
But Holy Family still have another chance and will hope to battle their way through the Qualifier phase.
