U-21 Football Division Two Final
Aughnamullen 2-20 Emyvale 3-11
Aughnamullen won a high-scoring U-21 Football Division Two Final against Emyvale in Tyholland last Friday evening. With Darren Geoghegan and Kevin Sheridan finding the net, Aughnamullen built up a healthy 2-9 to 0-5 half-time lead and they always looked likely winners, even though Emyvale were much-improved after the restart. Goals by Stefan McQuaid (two) and Jake Ward closed the gap, but Micheál Bannigan came off the bench to settle Aughnamullen, with his five-point haul helping his side over the finishing line.
