U21D Hurling Championship
Sixmilebridge 3-22 Inagh Kilnamona 2-15
Venue - Clareabbey
Referee - Pat Healy
The preliminary quarter final of the U21D hurling Championship saw a great team performance by our second team at Clareabbey on Sunday last, showing great resilience to come back into the game after conceeding 2 early soft goals against a decent Inagh Kilnamona side. The U21D championship is mostly comprised of clubs second teams. The game was evenly contested in the first half and the Bridge went into the dressing room at half time behind on a scoreline of 1-10 to 2-11.
The Bridge, fielding a young team kept their opponents to 4pts in the second half, a fantastic defensive display and this was the foundation for a strong turnaround eventually seeing the Bridge win out the tie, finishing strongly with the full time score 3-22 to 2-15.
Conor Keogh had a fine game in goals backed up with good defensive displays from Dougie Brew and Paddy O' Reilly who both did very well after switching in the full back and center back positions.
Jack McNamara & Cathal Ryan formed a solid partnership at midfield and got through an amount of work while up front Tommy Healy & Donal O' Leary created havoc in the Inagh Kilnamona defence as they were given excellent service from our backs which was the lauchpad for so many scores with both players combining to raise 3 Green Flags. Neil Forde had a fine game at center forward chipping in with 3pts from play. Well done to all in what was an all round great team performance and best of luck in the quarter final.
