Semi Final Junior Hurling Championship
Austin Stacks 1-16; St Pats (East Kerry) 0-3.
Our Hurlers advanced to the semi final of the JH Co. Championship with an accomplished performance against St. Pats at Connolly Park on this Sunday. The first quarter was even enough but with Ronan Gilsenan and Michael O’Leary (belated happy birthday Mike) dominating in the centre and Ronan scoring five huge points from frees, we lead by 0-10 to 0-3 at half time.
It was all the Rock in the second half when we went on to score another 1-6 (our goal coming three minutes from time by Paul Daly) while holding the opposition scoreless.
Team: David Wallace, David Field (Capt), Gearoid Carmody, Damien McCarthy, Paudie Bradley, Andrew Morrissey, Eddie Barry, Ronan Gilsenan (0-6 frees), Michael O’Leary, Paul Daly (1-2), Danny Maguire (0-1), John McCarthy (0-4), George Jordan (0-1), Trevor Barrett (0-2), Francie McLoughlin.
Subs: Tadhg Meehan (blood sub 9m to 12m), Peter Doyle (48m), Luke Donnelly (52m), Andrew Foley (55m), Shane Fitzgerald (58m).
We now play Duagh in the semi final. They had a three points win over Dr. Crokes in their quarter final game.
This semi final encounter will also be in Connolly Park on a date yet to be fixed.
