The Raphoe Royal and Prior Senior Girls played their hearts out  in Oriel Park against Presentation Kilkenny in their FAIS Senior Girls Schools semi-final but ended up being beaten 2-0.
A tense first half ended 0-0. Early in the second half, a penalty awarded against the Royal girls saw Kilkenny take the lead.
Despite the setback, Raphoe played some brilliant football, and pushed right until the final whistle. Unfortunately, with the last kick of the game, the Kilkenny school scored again.
