Garrycastle GAA Notes June 13th 2021

ACFL Div 1

Garrycastle 2-8  Rosemount 1-10

In the first game of the year Garrycastle came away from Rosemount with 2  league points after surviving a late comeback.   Garrycastle s last score came in the 47th minute which gave them a 7 point lead and with an extra man, after a Rosemount player had received  a red card, a comfortable  win was expected. However that was anything but the case as Rosemount came storming back into the game. Helped by a penalty in the 54th minute they pressed hard and with the lead cut to a point time ran out on them. Playing against a strong wind in the first half the Garrycastle players found scores hard to come by early on. Rosemount  got the first two points before Cathal Mannion opened the Garrycastle tally with a sweet point off his left after 10 minutes.  Tom O'Halloran  netted when the ball was recycled after his first shot was off target. Anther goal came from a penalty by  Tom o'Halloran  when Mark McCallon was fouled. Two frees from Cathal Mannion completed Garrycastle's first half tally to leave the halftime  score 2-3 to O-5 in our favour. Rosemount had a man black carded at the end of the first half. In the third quarter  Garrycastle were on top and outscored Rosemount by 0-5 to 0-2, the points coming from Michael Monaghan, Adam Kennedy  Mickey Greene, Conor Cosgrove and Jason Nugent.  In addition  Rosemount had a player sent off for a double yellow.  Garrycastle lost their shape and were under a lot of pressure in the last 10 minutes as Rosemount ran at them. The late stages of the game were uncomfortable  for Garrycastle and the final whistle was very welcome.

ACFL Div 4

St Pauls 0-12 Garrycastle 0-8.

Our division 4 team made the long trip to Clonmellon on Saturday evening and came away empty handed. St Pauls started on top and scored the first 4 points. Garrycastle s first point came in the 15th minute from a Ciaran ONeill free and Brian Ruane and Kenny Dolan  added two more in the next 10 minutes. Pauls increased their lead to two points before 2 late  points from Philip Maloney and Brian Ruane  levelled the game at 5 points each at halftime . In the first 20 minutes of the second half Pauls added 6 points to their tally to lead by 6. It wasn't until the 55th minute that Garrycastle s first 2nd half point came from Philip Monaghan followed by 2 more from Ciaran ONeill and Adam Kennedy. Paul's added a point to leave 4 points between the sides at halftime . This was a disappointing result but with more games this team can improve.
