Saints Crash out of Junior Hurling Championship
Antrim Junior Hurling Championship:
All Saints 0-06 Creggan 4-12
All Saints crashed out of the Junior Hurling Championship at the hands of a more skilful and efficient Creggan team at wet and miserable Ahoghill on Monday night.
Under-foot conditions were very wet and accompanied with a strong breeze and rain, it made for difficult hurling. However, it was Creggan who started off the better side with the wind in their backs in the first half.
All Saints certainly found it hard to adapt to the conditions and gave away several frees due to mis-timed tackles, the majority of which were tapped over the bar by Thomas McCann. Mid way through the first half the impressive McCann broke through the All Saints defence and fired a shot to bottom right hand corner of the net. Aided by a couple of excellent long range points from midfielder Michael Maguire, Creggan went in with a 1-11 to 0-01 lead at the interval, the sole All Saints score coming from a Paul Scullion free 5 minutes before half time.
With the strong breeze at their backs, Saints took the field early and were hopeful of drawing themselves back into the game, but they were dealt a sucker punch in the opening minutes as a long ball was spilled by Saints’ goalkeeper Gerry Maybin and Creggan full-forward Conor McCann scrambled the ball into the net. To the Saints’ credit, they did not drop their heads and continued to put their opponents under pressure. Liam Cassley got their first score of the second period as he powered through and sent a driven shot towards the Creggan goal only for a defender to deflect it over the bar for a point. Cassley’s midfield partner Damian Kelly also chipped in with 2 well-worked points in a row and it looked as if the Saints were finding their feet. However, Creggan responded with a Conor McCann free and another couple of scrambled goals to effectively finish the game as a contest.
All Saints continued to bombard balls into the Creggan goalmouth in the final 10 minutes, but it was not to be their day and they could not find a way through. Paul Scullion fired over a ‘70 in the dying minutes but it was nothing more than a consolation score.
All Saints: Gerry Maybin, Francis Casey, Enda Casey, Gerard Maybin, Mark McGaughey, Colm Hasson, Damian Gillan, Damian Kelly (0-02), Liam Cassley (0-01), Brian McToal, Gary Miskella, Kieran Butler, Paul Scullion (0-02 f, 0-01 ‘70), Sean O’Kane, Michael McCarry.
Subs: Damien Casey for Damian Gillan, Danny McCormack for Gerard Maybin
