Minor Hurling

Dungarvan 4-17 Cappoquin 2-14.

Our minor hurlers scored their second win from two outings in the minor hurling championship when they defeated Cappoquin away on Wednesday July 18th on the best conditioned pitch that we have seen during the recent drought.

Having trailed early on by 0-4 to 0-1 and in the 20th minute by 0-7 to 0-4, full forward Johnny Burke’s first goal of three brought us right into the game. A point by the same player gave us a lead that we never subsequently relinquished.

With Tristan Loftus, Conor Sheehan and Joe Duggan winning lots of possession from good puckouts by goalie Seanie McGrath, we finished the half well with further scores by David Flynn and Conor Sheehan while Johnny Burke’s second goal on the call of half time gave us a welcome 2-8 to 0-9 advantage.

Unfortunately our accuracy in front of the posts was wayward on too many occasions in both halves and on another day we could have paid the ultimate  price. As it was , we also scored some brilliant second half scores including Conor Coward’s three from play from a distance and one each by Jordan Shaw and Wayne O Donnell.

Good work on the end line by Johnny Burke supplied David Flynn for a well taken goal while our effective full forward Johnny brought his game tally to 3-3 with his final goal five minutes from time

Scorers :
