Croydon 1-06 V Bros Pearses 2-03
Games between these teams are always closely fought out to the end and the senior game on Saturday did not disappoint. A highly entertaining 60 mins of camogie was enjoyed by the spectators as the game could have gone either way right up to the point when Darren Howlin blew the final whistle.
Bros. Pearse had the better start with full forward Sue Deasy scoring two well taken goals beating Croydon keeper Anne-Marie O Dwyer. Croydon responded well, gradually taking advantage of the slight hill, with a goal from Michelle Mulhall, playing her second game of the day. Points from Aishling Touhy saw the teams head for half time with a scoreline of 2-01 to 1-02.
Again, Bros. Pearse made the better start with two well taken points shortly into the second half, but were unable to keep up that momentum. Croydon made some changes and managed to come within a point of the leaders with 10 minutes to go. The Pearses back line came under enormous pressure and did extremely well to maintain the lead. Croydon had some frustrating wides with a number of shots just failing to reach the target. Finally a point from Sharon McNeela on the stroke of full time ended the game in a draw.
Croydon: AM O Dywer, C Curtin, L Jones, M Power, M Dillon, E Dunphy, M Faloona, S Allen, S McNeela, A Tuohy, S Keatley, M Mulhall, R O Mahoney, B Hehir, M Hoare
