Ger Barron hoisted the Harding Cup high into the Galway night sky as his first clean sheet contributed to UCD winning their first Harding Cup in two years. UCD were met by a ferocious University of Limerick side in the final and had to work hard for their 3-0 win in Terryland Park.

UCD cruised past the challenge of UCC in the semi final of the 2010 Harding Cup competition. UCD breezed past UCC, scoring six goals to run out 6-1 winners. UCD were the better team from the outset as they moved the ball quicker than their opposition and used their pace up front to exploit deficiencies in the UCC defence.

UCD YOUNG GUNS USE RAPID FIRE UCD started their quest to regain the Harding Cup with an impressive 4-2 victory over a strong NUI Galway team in the first round of the 2010 Freshers Intervarsity competition. UCD raced into an early lead scoring three goals in 5 first half minutes to give the Dublin university a commanding 3-0 lead after fifteen minutes.

WASHOUT IN WEXFORD! So much for summer soccer! Just when we were congratulating ourselves for scheduling the recent snow snap outside the Irish soccer season, the elements have bitten back to postpone the opening of UCD's pre-season programme of friendlies. Now it's rain, falling without remission in Wexford, that has proved too much for even the excellent facilities at Ferrycarrig Park and tonight's match with Wexford Youths has been called off because of a waterlogged pitch. So it'll be training as usual for the Students today with the home encounter with Monaghan United on Sunday week 14th February first up. The match will be played on UCD's Leinster League pitch in Belfield. Full details and kick off time to follow.
