Sixteen Irish champions were crowned following today's National Junior Cadet Championships finals at the National Stadium in Dublin.
Talented St Francis light flyweight Lee Reeves landed the first title of the day after seeing off the challenge of Luke Thomas in an exciting all Munster 48Kg decider.
And the Moran brothers, Daryl and Leigh, both of the Illies Golden Gloves club, were celebrating on the double after Daryl beat Thomas Ward 4-1 and Leigh received a walkover.
The Lisburn club also celebrated a brace following wins for Jason McKay and Kurt Walker, McKay, a Celtic supporter, edging one of contests of the tournament with Dean Logan.
Meantime, Jason McDonagh emerged victorious over Joe Joyce after a double count-back and up and coming Tipperary star Jack Connelly beat Kieran Doherty by the odd point in five at 50Kg to land the Clonmel clubs seventh Irish title of 2009.
The skilful Kealen Hurley claimed another title for Munster at the expense of Donal Robinson and Shane McIntyre beat Sean Og Deeds to ensure that Geesala BC have won 12 Irish titles so far this year. Meantime, Gerard McCorley and Darryl Byrne were level at 2-2 after round one.
The Co Antrim teenager connected with a beautiful right to take the lead in the second - but Byrne landed two shots without reply in the final frame to claim bantamweight glory by one point from a top class three rounder.
Gerard Whitehouse also had his hand raised in victory, while Francis Mongan completed the first half of a Finn Valley brace, Michael Gallagher sealing the double for the Donegal club with a 7-2 win over Aaron Giles of the Cairn Lodge club.
Mickey Harty and Aaron Kelly - with the biggest winning margin of the day - won the final two titles of the day, Harty ensuring that a second crown was on the way back to Limerick with an impressive win over Patrick Gaffey.
The red corner dominated today's last four duels with Patrick McDonagh, John Joe Nevin, Hugh Nevin - both relations of Irish 2008 Olympian and European Union champion, John Joe Nevin - and Gary Cully progressing to next Friday nights 39Kg and 42Kg finals.
Shauna Lynch (39Kg) and Louis Donoghue (60Kg), both of the Geesala club, were presented with their medals by IABA President Dominic O'Rourke today after receiving walkovers.
