(Goals worth 2 points)
The mid afternoon clash on Thursday saw a real local derby clash when St Mary’s and St Patrick’s, Edenderry squared off in the Hurling group G final in Glenisk O’Connor Park in front of a massive crowd.
It was the St Patrick’s outfit who got the dream start out scoring their opponents 2-3 to a goal in the opening seventeen minutes, the goals coming from Dion Foran and a point effort that dropped short from Peter Killaly along with white flags from Foran and two long range efforts from Sam Murrin.
Pats extended their lead in the last few moments in t the half with the hugely effective Foran and Dan Doyle raising white flags to push their side closer to glory.
The third quarter saw the St Patrick’s men really push on for home and they turned the screw on a hard working St Mary’s side with Foran netting twice along with scores from Murrin, Doyle and Kyle Moloney.
St Mary’s manage to raise a few cheers from the crowd late on as they got some excellent scores through Jayden Morley Duffy, Sean Lynch and Noah Perdisatt to let them put a bit of respect on the scoreboard as their near neighbours St Patrick’s were crowned champions for 2026.
