2 XV League
\nDungannon performed better with the elements in the first half , Queen\u2019s came back strongly but failed to close the gap as Gannon ran out 15-12 winners.
\nDungannon opened the scoring after three minutes when Plunkett McCallon burst through from outside the twenty-two to touch down beside the posts. Surprisingly the reliable Plunkett missed the conversion.

\n15 \u2013 12
\nWith Stuart McKenzie and Richard Holmes using their experience to close the game down Dungannon were the deserved winners. It was also good to see Jake Finlay and Jonny Gordon making their home debuts in the blue and white.
\nThis puts the IIs into third equal place with Ballynahinch, Malone and Instonians in the 2 XV League. We need a win in our final League game to make third place our own. <\/p>\n
