Match Report U17 League Div 1      10.02.2018

Killygarry V Drumloman Gaels (Mullahoran & Ballymchugh) in Crubany.

Killygarry played Drumloman Gaels in Crubany on Saturday 10.02.2018, in wintry conditions both teams battled hard for the 60 minutes, Killygarry with the bare 15 starting tried to keep with the amalgamation but it's very difficult to do this with a few injuries. Early scores from both teams kept it neck & neck until Drumloman got two easy goals before half time.

Half time: Killygarry 2-04 Drumloman Gaels 4-06

The second half was similar to the first with Killygarry trying hard to reduce the lead, they did this to 3 points at one stage but Drumloman able to bring on fresh legs saw them hold out for victory.  Killygarry tried hard with good performances from Paul McCabe, Oisin Brady, Patrick Breslin and Jack Mooney.

Final score:  Killygarry 3-08 - Drumloman Gaels 4-12

Squad on the night: Cormac Lynch, Paul McCabe, Kevin Lovett, Patrick Breslin, Cian Reilly (1-0), Eoin Kelly, Dara Brady, James Gannon (0-1), Jack Mooney ( 0-4) , James Reilly  , David Talbot (1-0), Richard Arydele, Oisin Brady (1-2), Darragh Lovett ( 0-1 ), Mark McDermott, Aaron McGovern and Adam Butt.
