Greenacres' Keaton Morrison birdied the par-five 18th to card a 73 and clinch the Irish Under 14 Boys Open title by a shot at Lurgan.

The Ulster star pipped from Athlone's Eoin McGrath and Roganstown's Joshua McCabe, whose birdie try in the following group slid by.

McGrath made a late run to take grab a share of second as Tandragee's Edward Rowe won the Under 13 Trophy with a 75.
