Nationals Report

The Denver Gaels hurling team lost to a very skilled Indianapolis team in their first game of USGAA Nationals in San Fransisco.

The Men’s Gaelic football faired better this year, reaching the semi final and losing a very close game by a single point.

No women’s teams from Denver attended Nationals this year.
