On Saturday last our junior hurlers travelled to Caherdavin to play Crecora in this year's junior hurling championship. The match was played in terrible conditions at the end of the hour we were victors by 2 points. This was a game of two halves Crecora led at the break by 3.04 to 0.05 .We were a different side in the second period we kept Crecora scoreless from play and all they scored was 2 points from frees. We on the other hand eat into Crecora lead and they had no answer to the strong runs of Niall Phelan which resulted in frees after frees for us. Brendan Mullins was on song with his free taking and punished Crecora each time. With ten minutes remaining Niall (happy) Phelan raised a green flag for us and we finished the stronger team. Both Crecora and ourselves should be applauded for a entertaining hours hurling in those conditions. On the night we had fine performances from Kieran Dore, Mark Phelan and Tony Quigley in defence, Kevin Maher and Barry O Doherty who put in a hard hours work in the middle of the field and up front Gearoid Phelan, Patrick Mullins Padraig Reale and Niall Phelan were outstanding. We lined out as follows Christan Meehan, Kieran Dore, Mark Phelan, Colm O Brien, Jim Henniger, Wayne Cronin (0-01) Tony Quigley, Kevin Maher (captain) Barry O Doherty, Gearoid Phelan, Niall Phelan (1-00) Brendan Mullins (0-07) Padraig Reale (0-02) Patrick Mullins (0-04) and Paul Doherty.
