Students visit Judges Road
The Judges Road out-fit, who have lost six of their last seven games, will be looking to kick start their All Ireland League campaign.
Nicholl said following the 35-25 win over Ballynahinch, he was happy with the boys ‘never say die’ attitude.

“The past few matches were we lost the performances haven’t been bad, but I am delighted for the players and hope we can kick start our 2013.”
With Queens coming up Nicholl knows his side will need to be at their best if they harbour any hopes of getting a second win on the bounce.
“Queens University will be a totally different side, they love runs from deep, so if we can tighten up our defence and bring back some players we have a good chance of winning.”

“If players are kept fit we will be there or there abouts at the top come the end of the season,” concluded Nicholl.
