Seniors: Our seniors lost by the narrowest last Saturday against Ballybay in a tremendous battle, 3-8 to 1-15. Though we opened the scoring in the 2nd minute with a Chrissy McKenna free, it was Ballybay who had the upper hand in the first half and led 0-7 to 0-2 after 23 minutes. A late flurry of long range points by Adam Treanor and Chrissy McKenna reduced this margin to just 3 points, 0-6 to 0-9 by half time. The second half was a memorable half filled with many fine scores and goals. The game’s first goal came in the 33rd minute from a fisted Niall Rooney goal levelling game. This was followed by a fine individual goal from Chrissy McKenna who sent us back into the lead in the 35th minute. Chrissy McAnanley followed in on the goalscoring act, netting in the 40th minute after a Ballybay point to increase our winning margin 3-6 to 0-10. Ballybay responded with 3 successive points before Adam Treanor pointed from afar to leave just a goal between the sides with 10 minutes remaining. This margin was wiped in the 51st minute when Ballybay converted a penalty. We regained the lead in the 55th minute with an Adam Treanor point but 2 late Ballybay points in the 57th and 59th minutes overturned this lead to leave the full time score Gaeil Triucha 3-8 Ballybay 1-15.
