Galway sportswoman Jennifer Hegarty captured the Irish u-19 squash title held at the Galway Lawn Tennis Club recently.
Hegarty overcame Elaine Ware from Carlow with a 3-1 victory. From Newcastle, Hegarty is a multi-talented athlete who plays hockey with Galway Hockey Club, soccer with Salthill Devon and football with St Michaels, but it is squash that has brought her the most success, having represented Ireland on the u-15 Home internationals, competed for Ireland in last season’s u-19 Europeans, as well as making the u-19 European individual/team Championships for 2011.
