Provincial League - Section 1 13th April 2017
Scorers: Coyle(1*Try), Nevin(1*Try), Trainor(1*Try), Murphy(2*Pen, 2*Conv)

In the Provincial League - Section 1, Rainey II defeated Bangor II by 25 - 20 under the Hatrick Park lights.  Bangor scored four of the seven tries, but lacked a place kicker.  Opening the score for Rainey was flanker Coyle who sampled rugby for the first time only a few weeks ago.  Out-half Murphy added the points.  Prop Nevin replied for Rainey when Bangor had shown what they could do, but Murphy landed a penalty to make it 15-5 at the break.  Another Murphy penalty saw Rainey well ahead, but two tries from Bangor altered the picture.  Rainey were able to breathe a little more easily when a driving maul gave hooker Trainor a try, but Bangor kept going to score again.
