Devon Hill netted a first half goal for St Joseph's, Rochfortbridge in the Leinster Colleges Senior A Football Final.

St Joseph's, Rochfortbridge claimed Leinster Colleges A Senior Football Championship glory with a 2-13 to 0-15 win over a fancied Naas CBS outfit at Bord Na Mona O'Connor Park.

Some brilliant late points from Devin Hill and Jack Torpey sealed a hugely satisfying success for Luke Dempsey and John Rouse's team.

Hill blasted a first half goal for Rochfortbridge, who led by 1-5 to 0-6 at the turnaround.

With Mikey McGovern sharp in attack, Naas rallied after the restart, but Brandon Kelly converted a penalty and a defiant Rochfortbridge weren't going to be denied.

In the B decider at TEG Cusack Park Colaiste Choilm, Tullmamore survived a late Cnoc Mhuire, Granard comeback, winning a 4-5 to 2-7 scoreline.
