Dublin Celts | Irish American Football Team 1993 Season Results & Roster

Dublin Celts Logo

Season Report

 

This was the Dublin Celts ninth year in the league and also their last. It was a difficult season for them, as they finished the regular season 5-5, their second season in a row with an even record. They lost both their regular season games against big rivals Craigavon Cowboys and also Dublin rivals the Tornadoes.

They entered the semi-final match with Craigavon as heavy underdogs but won 19-0 in one of the shocks of the season. They were unable to repeat the feat in the Shamrock Bowl, howver, losing 19-2.

This was to be their last season, as they folded soon afterwards, although a number of players went on to form the Dublin LIghtning.

They entered the first Emerald Bowl Conference season in 2014-15, where they have had less luck, finishing with a 50% record twice, and a losing record twice. In 2019 the dropped dowm to the Glas Bowl Conference, where they reached the Final, losing to Craigavon Cowboys 2nds. It was their first winning season since the start of the Irish Flag Football League in 2014.

They were known as the NUI Maynooth Phantoms from 2010-2015, and the Maynooth University Bulls from 2015 to 2016, and since then as Maynooth University Hurricanes.

QB Aidan Kelly topped off a long-drive on Drimnagh’s first possession with a long, winding run. Kelly found WR Liam Farrell for the one-point conversion. Although suffering a knee-injury on the play, Farrell recovered. The eagles levelled the scores with their second drive, QB Chris Wild finding Chris Broughton in the endzone. The conversion was unsuccessful, and the Cycos mainained the lead. QB Kelly found WR Farrel with two touchdown passes on the next two Cycos drives, with Kelly intercepting the Eagles in between. This made the score 19-6. The Cycos got their fourth TD with a run from Stephen Dunne. He also caught the pass for the two-point conversion, making the score 27-6. Kelly found Farrell for a hat-trick of TD passes with Dunne once again adding the two-point conversion to make the score 35-6. Reference: [6]

The Cycos defence also got on the scoreboard, when Liam Farrell returned an interception for a TD. Iain McGuinness caught the one-point conversion, making it 42-6 to Drimnagh. McGuinness got an interception of his own to set up the final Drimnagh scoring drive, as Aidan Kelly ran in another TD. On defence, Cameron Cramer and Darren Brady both sacked the Quarterback, while the Eagles got two sacks of their own. QB Aidan Kelly picked up the Cycos MVP award. Reference: [6]

Report

Edenderry Eagles won their second Emerald Bowl in three years with a comprehensive 54-24 victory over Trinity College Dublin in the Final. Trinity had been helped by some questionable calls in their playoff match with Dublin Bay Raptors [4], and Louth Mavericks and Craigavon Cowboys, the best teams during the regular season, both faltered in the Semi-Finals, losing to the Edenderry Eagles and Trinity College (26-6) respectively.
