Junior A Hurlers
Our Junior A Hurlers drew with Drom-Broadford 1-18 to 0-21 in their second round championship game last Saturday in Ballingarry.
We were slow to settle in the first half and despite points from Cathal O’Neill, Richard Murphy and Rian O’Byrne, Drom were getting the upper hand and led by 0-11 to 0-4 with 25 minutes on the clock.
Drom then had a goal ruled out for a square ball before Richard Murphy connected with a ball in the square that ended up in the back of the net and a goal which was a much needed boost for us.
A Cathal O’Neill point soon after left three points in it at the break: 0-11 to 1-5.

The intensity stepped up a gear in the second half as ourselves and Drom traded points in a highly entertaining contest.
David Power and Cathal were sending over fine scores whilst James Conheady and Darach Skelly were winning frees in the forward line.
James and Cormac Flanagan also managed to score points in reply to Drom.
Coming into the closing stages a fine point from Damien Kearney and two Cathal scores gave us the lead but a late Drom free tied up the game and it finished a draw: 0-21 to 1-18.

Team: Ger Kennedy; Rory Hannan, Jack Dalton, Pádraig Byrnes; Cian Leahy, Páraic O’Neill, Tom Shanahan; Cormac Flanagan (0-1), Darach Skelly; James Conheady (0-1), Cathal O’Neill (0-7), David Power (0-5); Rian O’Byrne (0-2); Conor Kirby, Richard Murphy (1-1).
