Four more medals for Team Ireland
Michaela Walsh (gold), Joanna Lambe (silver), Clare Grace (silver) and Alanna Audley -Murphy (bronze) finished in podium positions in Wittenburg, Germany over the weekend.
The quartet were part of a seven-strong Ireland team taking on Germany A and B and Russia in a Round Robin tournament.
Ireland wound up an intense weekend of boxing with a meeting against Russia this afternoon. Clare Grace recorded a win over Saadat Abdulayeva.
Audley-Murphy, who along with Walsh will represent Northern Ireland at the Commonwealth Games this summer, was in against London 2012 silver medallist Sofya Ochigava and gave a fine account of herself over four, two minute rounds against the former World Elite champion.
Ochigava, who was beaten by Katie Taylor in the Olympic final in London in 2012, won three bouts in three days this weekend.
Irish team manager Maura Campbell praised the performances of the Irish team in Germany.
The Irish squad are due to arrive home via Dublin Airport at 11: 20pm tonight.
Irish women’s boxing is proudly sponsored by Quick Park of Dublin Airport.
