Senior Ladies Co. Championship: Our senior ladies secured themselves a place in the Bon Secours county semi-final yesterday with a hard-fought win away to Finuge/St. Senans in Round 3 of the Senior Championship. Played in greasy underfoot conditions in Mountcoal Na Gaeil dominated possession in the first quarter and led by 4 points to 1 courtesy of points from Eilís O’Connor, Jadyn Lucey, Mary O’Connell and Meabh Barry.
Further points from Meagan Sheehy and Megan O’Connor plus a free from Jadyn Lucey extended the lead at halftime to 7-2. Our girls had chances at the beginning of the 2nd half to put the game to bed but twice the woodwork came to Finuge/St. Senan’s rescue. A yellow card in the 10th minute reduced our side to 14 players and the home team suddenly began to get a foothold, kicking 4 points on the trot, to leave just the minimum between the sides with 15 minutes remaining.
A Jadyn Lucey free stopped the rot but Finuge/St Senans matched it with a free of their own. The decisive score of the game came 5 minutes from the end when Orla Costello showed great composure to cooly slot home the only goal of the game.
A point in the final minute from midfielder Mary O’Connell sealed the deal as Na Gaeil won out on a scoreline of 1-9 to 0-7. The girls will now play Castleisland Desmonds in the semi-final on Sunday 20th at 12pm in Castleisland.
