Minor league success

THE MINORS LADS had a tremendous win over rivals Michael Glaveys yesterday afternoon (March 2nd).

Shannon Gaels were by far the stronger opponents clocking up an impressive 3-8 when the final whistle was blown. Michael Glaveys kicked seven points throughout the match. This achievement follow the previous week's win over St. Croans in Enfield.

James Deane was superb in defence alongside Mattew Molloy, Fergal Harmon and James Filan. They were backed up by solid gaming between the posts by Fintan Sweeney. Liam Murtagh was inspirational in his role as an attacking half back. David O' Dowd along with Cathal O' Dowd lined out at centre-field and were a brilliant force.

We had the return of Shane Leydon playing his first match in the league. He controlled the forward line with his exceptional talent. Also making their mark was Pearse Beirne and Daniel Morris who opened up the Croan's defence line, contributing to many of the scores. Gaels ran out deseved winners by four points even being the under-dogs.

The next Minor game will be against Boyle on Sunday, March 16th at 12 p.m. Boyle will be at home.
