Club Notes -19th August 2019

Junior B Hurling Championship

Drumcullen 0-12

Carrig & Riverstown 2-8

Drumcullen had enough chances to win this game but inaccuracy cost dearly and the concession of goals in each half proved the difference. Level at the break,1-4 to 0-7, Drumcullen took the lead in the second half but were unlucky to concede defeat at the end. Their next game is on Saturday next in Rath v Tullamore at 3pm and a win is essential to retain hopes of qualifying for the knock-out stages

Team: A. Mannion, S, Kelly, J. Kelly, A. Moran, L. Kelly, J. Brophy, D. Troy, C. Dooley, M. Kennedy (0-1), P. Spain (0-1), J. Troy (0-5), N. O’Leary (0-4), E. Barrett, T. O’Brien, D. Spain (0-1). Subs used: C. Guilfoyle, M. Hennessy, N. Bugler.

U13 Hurling Championship Play-off

Drumcullen/Seir Kieran  3-14

Coolderry 0-7

This was a strange result as the teams had fought out a tight game two weeks previously with Coolderry looking the stronger and coming out on top. On this occasion, it was one-way traffic from the start as DSK built up a commanding 2-9 to 0-3 lead at the break in Clareen. The second half was more competitive but a well worked goal put the result beyond doubt. Coolderry sportingly agreed to bring forward the game as DSK had some influential players leaving on holidays the following day. Team: K. Spain, G. Dooley, J. Troy, K. Morris, E. O’Neill, J. Ryan, J. Hennessy, M. Ryan (1-3), S. Carey, R. Hollywood (0-1), J. Foley (0-1), K.  Dooner, D. Hollywood (1-6), J. Dooner (1-0), P. Lyons (0-3) Subs; C. Mannion, C. Nugent, O. Darcy, K. Carey, D. Dooley.
