St Patricks College Navan 2-18
Colaiste Mhuire Mullingar 1-4

St Pat's had a very comfortable win over Colaiste Mhuire to claim the North Leinster Juvenile A football decider played on the astro pitch at Dunganny on Friday.

The Navan side were always on top in this encounter played in ideal conditions. Scott Imade got the opening score of the game with a fine point. From there on it was one way traffic to the Colaiste Mhuire goal. Almost immediatly after the opening score Sean Smith got in for the Pats first goal.

A succession of points from Thomas O'Reilly (5) Eanna O'Kelly Lynch (2), Conor Nash (2), Caolach Halligan (1) and a goal from full foward Louis Timmons put St Pats into a 2-11 to 0-1 lead at the interval. Cormac Deegan got the Mary's lone first half point.

St Pats continued their onslaught in the second half. The scoreline was pushed out to 2-16 to 0-1 before Colaiste Mhuire registered a score through a Deegan pointed free. The Mullingar side enjoyed their best period of the game after that. Points from Niall Gavin (2) and Deegan gave them some hope. A goal from Deegan on the stroke of full time gave the scoreboard a better look but St Pats were convincing winners and on this performance will be hard bet in the Leinster proper.

After the game Tom O'Donnell presented the North Leinster Juvenile A Cup to St Patricks captain Conor Nash.
