Sacred Heart Clonakilty 5-13 Coachford Community School 0-4
The Junior camogie girls continued their winning run, with an easier than expected, County Semi Final victory over Coachford this morning. Lining out without a number of regulars, due to injury and illness, the strength of the panel was evident as they took the game to their opponents from the off.
Aoife Harte deployed at full forward got the scoreboard ticking with a goal inside the opening 5 minutes, followed by four Kate Collins points (2 frees, 2 play) . The one way traffic continued and Aoife White kept up her recent scoring feats wirth another cracking goal. The immensely talented Niamh Doyle was another to keep the scoreboard operator busy and at the conclusion she had amassed a tally of 2-4 all from play. Collins was to finish with 1-08.
A number of the Clon contingent, fresh from their U16 Premier 1 victory, were again immense and there were stellar performances from Luisne Deiseach, team captain Eibhlin Murphy, MAebh Lyons and the ever reliable Aine Hennessy. The two corner backs Matilda O ODnovan and Maisy Lyons were instrumental in the defence not conceding a goal over the hour. Further out the impressive Juliet Harte and Ella Haghney hurled a world of ball.
As already mentioned the strength of the panel was evident again today and Alex O Brien, Ella Coakley and Player Of the Match and goalkeeper Leah O Brien are all putting their hands up for starting spots.
The Junior A County Final will take place over the coming weeks, an evening game in Castle Road Mahon with the date T.B.C.
