13/08/18
Castleblayney under 13 hurlers continued the feel good factor in the club when they annexed the cup title against Keady on Monday evening in Emmet Park, Carrickmacross.
In a game played in wonderful conditions throughout. Castleblayney laid the foundations for victory in a 12 minute period before half-time where they registered 2-1 to Keady’s single point. The goals for Castleblayney came from Shea Casey and their captain Canice Murphy.
Throughout the match Keady fought gallantly and only for some excellent defending from Castleblayney spearheaded by the excellent Tristan Duffy the final score may have been much closer.
Indeed Keady did manage to breakdown the stubborn Castleblayney cover in the 15th minute of the second half through their substitute James Hatzer. However, Catleblayney responded with another Casey goal when he meandered his way through and the accurate Jason Clarke struck for the last score of the evening much to the delight of the Castleblayney support.
