Club Notes -29th October 2019

U15B Hurling Semi-final

Our U15 hurlers were defeated by Coolderry in the B final on Sunday morning in Kinnitty. The team were without the services of Jack Mooney and PJ Bracken due to illness. Having trailed by 0-3 to 2-9 at half time after a poor start the lads battled back in the second half with two early goals from Brian Pardy and Cathal Bergin. However after a couple of points from Drumcullen Seir Kieran, Coolderry rallied again with another goal which sealed the result for the stronger team on the day. The highlight for Drumcullen Seir Kieran was a superb penalty save by goalkeeper Killian Spain. The final score was 2-8 to 3-16. We still have an U15 hurling league final for this t am to look forward to.
