Junior B – The Bs qualified for the semi-finals of the O’Duffy Cup on Sunday after an entertaining victory over Corduff at Oram. They recovered from a very poor start with a barrage of goals in the 2nd quarter to lead by 5 at the interval. After the break the lead grew to 9 before Corduff rallied and a late penalty from them left the final score 5-12 to 4-10 in Blayneys favour. The star of the show was undoubtedly Ciaran McGinn who contributed a personal tally of 4-3. Team and scorers: P McBennett, M McHugh, L McElroy, B Flanagan; J McHugh, B McGuinness, B McGuigan (0-1); P Finnegan (0-1), A Irwin; G Brady, N Duffy, D Hughes (1-0); C McGinn (4-3), R Treacy (0-2, 1f), K Hill (0-5, 4f).The semi-Final will take place on Friday 1st June at a Blayney venue. A busy period for Bs continued with a league game last night (Wednesday) and tomorrow they travel to Clontibret for another league fixture.
