St Francis - Dromard
On Tuesday last our minor team travelled to Fr McGee Park to take on Colmcille in the 1st round of the minor championship. Conditions were ideal and it was St Francis that got off to a great start going into a 1-4 to no score lead. The home side responded with an unanswered 2-5 to take a 4-point advantage. Gary Maguire struck with a well taken goal to leave the half time score of Colmcille 2-5 St Francis 2-4. We started the second half with three points. However the home side hit a purple patch scoring 1-9 without reply. Not admitting defeat our charges came strongly back into game with a 6-point scoring burst. A couple of close calls at the end left it a tense finish. However it wasn't to be and Colmcille held on to win on the scoreline Colmcille 3-14 St Francis 2-13. Credit to both teams who served up a highly committed and good quality encounter. Team and scorers; Sean Mc Nerney, Robert Cooke, Keith Masterson (0.1), Peadar Martin, Michael Reynolds, James Kenny, David Cosgrove (0-2) one 45, one free, Neil Cosgrove, Stephen Kenny, Gary Maguire (1-0), Niall McManus (0-1), Peter Mimnagh (0-2), Declan Mimnagh (1-7) 5 frees.
