U20 Championship Semi-Final The Downs 1-08 Castledaly/Rosemount 0-06. 

 

Castledaly/Rosemount bowed out of the Under 20s Championship on Sunday morning last away to The Downs despite representing themselves with their usual high work-rate and determination.  GAA matches are decided on scorelines and scores were hard to come by for the amalgamation side. The home team got off to the better start with an early goal from a brief goalmouth scramble .  Ben O'Brien had made a last-ditch attempt to save but the umpire judged the ball crossed the line and duly raised the green flag.  This goal provided The Downs with a lead for the remainder of the game which Castledaly/Rosemount never eclipsed.  With Ben Cox and Dan Heavin accounting for their 0-02 half-time team tally , The Downs registered 1-04 in reply.   
After conceding the first few scores in the second half, Castledaly/Rosemount did battle back to narrow the gap to 4 points with Aaron Nugent leading the charge contributing 3 points while Dan Heavin added the fourth.  The result was in the balance to the very end as Castledaly/Rosemount went close to poaching a goal near the finish,  but it was not enough as the home team sealed their final spot on the scoreline: The Downs 1-08 Castledaly/Rosemount 0-06. 

Castledaly/Rosemount Team: Jordan Nugent; Ben O'Brien, Liam O'Neill, Ciaran Maxwell; Mattie Farrell, Cathal Byrne, Adam Turley; Padraig Geoghegan, Lorcan Daly; Matthew Cox, Kevin Stone, Cathal Dolan; Aaron Nugent (0-03, 1 free), Dan Heavin (0-02), Ben Cox (0-01). Subs: Hugh Owens for C. Dolan, Colin Boland for A. Turley.
