The lads following on from their great display against table toppers Kilcoo last week, came away with all the points. The boys displayed great teamwork and determination throughout. It would be impossible to name a standout player as all the boys played so well, but special mention should go to Mark McAleenan who had a super game in defence. Well done lads.

The town girls scored 3 points without reply in the first 5 minutes and set the marker early on.
