Carndonagh Community School’s Jack Doherty is the latest Donegal Daily/Donegal Sport Hub Sports Person of the Week, in association with O’Reilly’s.

Doherty bagged 647 votes this week, 50 per cent of the 1,301 polled.

Doherty saw off Donegal senior star Oisin Gallen, who had 365 votes.

Carndonagh Community School won their third Dr Tony O’Neill Senior Cup final, retaining the title they won last year.

Carn defeated Midleton CBS at Whitehall. Doherty was the Carndonagh match-winner. Eight minutes from the end, he rose to head home from a Mikey Friel cross and send Carn on their way.

Each weekly award winner will receive a kitbag, a jacket and a bobble hat, supplied by O’Reilly’s.

The award winners are chosen via a public vote from a shortlist selected by our panel.

O’Reilly’s Sportswear was founded in 2017 by well-known Twin Towns sporting brothers Steven and Martin O’Reilly.
