St Brigids 1-12 Setanta 2-04

Our Junior Hurlers recorded their third league win of the season last Sunday afternoon after a fine 1-12 to 2-04 win over league leaders Setanta in Russell Park. It was a tight affair throughout and it was the Ballymun men began brightest and two early goals which had them in control early on. But points from Fiachra O Meara and Aaron Carolan (0-02), reduced the margin to three points at the break.

The second half belonged to veteran Sean Duigo as he rolled back the years to score 1-02 from full forward to turn the game on its head. From there, Brigids dominated and resticted the league leaders to only 3 points in the second half. The second half also saw club legend Sean Fraine and his son David play their first ever game together, a fitting end to a fine Brigids comeback. Well done to Sean, Ciaran and Co. who are in Championship action next Tuesday evening.
