The margin of victory for Martin Russell's team was a true reflection of the Students' dominance. And against all the odds, last year's First Division champions are now up to fifth place in the table after keeping a clean sheet for the fifth time in a row..

Bray went close to breaking the deadlock when a Robbie Doyle cross from the right almost created an opening for Jake Kelly. But defender Sean Harding was back just in time the head the ball over his own bar. Later Ian Tuohy had a 22 yard effort just over the top after a weak clearance by the College defence.

College eventually had their noses in front seconds before the interval when Paul Corry robbed Bray substitute Mark O'Brien 30 yards from goal. Chris Mulhall was then able to stab the ball through for David McMillan to clinically finish from close range.

The Students then stretched their lead on 48 minutes when a wonderful ball from Corry found David McMillan sprinting down the left. His low cross was fired home from six yards by the impressive midfielder Greg Bolger from six yards with the Bray defence all at sea.

College ran rampant in the second half with Bolger grabbing his second goal on 56 minutes with a perfect lob from 22 yards over the advancing Kane after David McMillan had carved open the home defence.

Two minutes later, the Students stretched their lead further when a Dwayne Wilson effort from a narrow angle saw 'keeper Kane have the misfortune to push the ball into his own net.

The agony continued for Bray on 67 minutes after a reflex save by Kane from Harding was deflected off the legs of the legs of David McMillan into the net.

The McMillan brothers completed the trouncing of Bray when skipper Evan had the simple task of heading home on 74 minutes after a cross by David on the right had eluded the Bray defence.
