Juniors win again
St Martins 3-14 Tullaroan 2-11
On a bitterly cold evening, the Juniors of St Martins and Tullaroan ( not Thomastown 😀 ) served up a highly entertaining match in the Junior League. The local lads put in a great effort for the entire sixty minutes and fully deserved their win. A lively start from Donal Shore with an early goal and with Shane Kinsella keeping the scoreboard ticking over from placed balls we went in in front on a score line of 1-8 to 1-7 at half time.
It was nip and tuck for most of the 2nd half with no quarter asked or given. David and Thomas Walsh repelled many Tullaroan attacks as they went in search of an equalising goal during the last ten minutes. St Martins finished strongly with great points from play from Donal Shore, Martin Dowling and Robert Reid, while Jason Shore put the final nail in the Tullaroan coffin with a late goal.
Next up for the juniors is the first round of the league – championship against local rivals Erins Own next Friday evening.
