Final Score: Kilmeena 5-08 Balla 2-09
With the new scoreboard finally making its debut to the delight of all present, Kilmeena got back to winning ways, with a hard fought win over a physical Balla side at home on Tuesday 18th April. The home side lined out without a number of regulars and had to draft in u14’s Oisin Grimley & Sean Prenty who both stepped up to the mark on the day. The home side dominated possession for most of the first half but due to wasteful shooting the score at half time could have been more than 4-1 to 1-7 with goals from Simon Duffy, Chris Mc Nally & Cian Moore.
In the second half Kilmeena were much more clinical in front of the posts and hit 7 points (4 from Jack Carney) without reply. A Simon Duffy goal on 18mins killed the game as a contest. The home defence of Brian Mortimer, Tom Smyth, Oisin Grimley, Ronan O’ Donnell (Fahy) & Niall Mullin were excellent throughout and limited their opponents to 1-02, the goal coming in the final minute of the game. Kilmeena can now look forward to their local derby match with their neighbours Burrishoole on Friday next.
Team: Jason Mc Glynn, Brian Mortimer, Tom Smyth, Oisin Grimley, Ronan O’ Donnell (Fahy), Niall Mullin, Jack Carney, Mickey Hastings, Sean Prenty, Cian Moore, Luke Garavan, Chris Mc Nally, Simon Duffy. Subs: Gerard Gibbons, Cathal Cawley, Liam Moore, Evan O’ Donnell, Jack Mulchrone.
