Queens Cup Day 3 Results
By Bernard O’Neill – IABA Press Officer
Ireland experienced contrasting fortunes at the Queens Cup in Stralsund, Germany today after claiming three wins from seven bouts, with two split decisions going against the team.
Team manager Bernie Harold reports.
“Team Captain, Mary Kate Nevin was first into the ring for Ireland today in the Semi-Final of Junior 50kg class against Anastasia Markowa of Russia. This was a very busy contest with the Russian trying to dictate the pace but Mary Kate responded very well and took control midway through the first round. She won 3-0 and is through to the final tomorrow against Lenka Bernadova of the Czech Republic.
“Next in was Junior Bantamweight Mary Geraghty in the Semi-Final against Johanna Wonyou of France. The French girl was holding consistently throughout the contest but Mary followed the instructions of her corner and stood back and boxed. The French girl, surprisingly got the decision 3-0.
“Marguerita Nevin was next into the ring against Emily Mauermann of Germany and won decisively 3-0 to earn her place in the Final against a very impressive Jessica Triebelova of Slovakia.
“Evelyn Igaro was next in in what proved to be a very tough, hard hitting contest with Linne Viksel of Sweden. The Irish girl forced a standing count on the Swede in the 3rd round and won 3-0. She boxes Sabine Fielder of the host nation in the Final tomorrow.
“Also for Ireland in the Junior 63KG class was Roisin Gannon against Sabine Fielder of Germany. The German proved too experienced for Roisin but she gave an outstanding performance losing 3-0.
“Youth 57KG Semi-Final was between Ireland’s Kellie McLoughlin and Russian No. 1 Anna Krasnoperova. After a cracking contest that had everyone in the Stadium on their feet the Russian got the nod 2-1.
“Last in today for Ireland was Joanne Richards in the Youth 69KG Final against Natalia Barbusinska of Poland. This was a very tough contest with neither boxer giving an inch but Richards seemed to be scoring two for one. However some of the judges saw it differently and the Pole won on a split decision.”
Ireland will be back in action tomorrow afternoon and evening.
The Irish squad are due to arrive home on Sunday evening at approximately 7.25pm via Dublin Airport.
