Jack Ringrose helps UCD to 30-20 bonus-point win over Terenure College

Jack Ringrose matched his older brother Garry's hat-trick heroics with Leinster as he helped UCD to an exciting 30-20 bonus-point win over Terenure College.

There was plenty of brotherly love at the Belfield Bowl where right winger Ringrose chipped in with a trio of well-taken scores, the Penny siblings, Alex and Scott, played together in the students' back row, and Terenure had Stephen and Mark O'Neill in their back-line.

Saturday's result means UCD swap places with Terenure in Energia All-Ireland League Division 1A, with Kevin Croke's in-form youngsters now second overall - four points behind leaders Cork Constitution.

Lansdowne's poor form continued and they now lie bottom after Young Munster claimed their first victory of the season - a 7-0 success at headquarters inspired by winger Luke Fitzgerald's 58th-minute try in the corner.

Ulster flyer Robert Baloucoune scored a hat-trick of tries and Aaron Cairns kicked a last-gasp match-winning penalty in Ballynahinch's epic 35-34 bonus point triumph at Dublin University. Garryowen made it three league wins in-a-row with a second half penalty try for a collapsed maul steering them past Clontarf - 13-10.

Meanwhile, unbeaten pair Highfield and Old Wesley are out in front in Division 1B. Tim Ryan's Cork side received a walkover win - and a full five points - after a mumps outbreak in the Navan squad prevented them from playing.

Hooker Ben Burns joined the hat-trick club as Wesley's four-try second half salvo saw them record an impressive 40-13 win at City of Armagh. Winger Fionn Higgins' injury-time try earned Naas' maiden league success under new head coach Dan van Zyl as they pipped Shannon 16-14.

Captain Steve Crosbie scored a try and kicked three conversions as Old Belvedere won 26-21 against Malone to move back up to third, while St. Mary's College also gained ground thanks to a 16-10 victory over Banbridge which saw winger Hugo Conway run in a terrific 95-metre try.
