MINOR
HURLING:
Ferrybank’s
Minor Hurlers suffered their second defeat in this year’s Minor Championship
when they were defeated by a strong Abbeyside team in Ferrybank
last Tuesday night. Abbeyside made the better start, scoring an early goal and
put Ferrybank under pressure. To their credit, Ferrybank clawed their way back
into the game, with good points from David Atkins, Robbie Carew and John Ahern
that left them only five points behind at the break. Abbeyside, again started
the second-half on top, and took their scores, but Ferrybank with a young side
kept battling all the way and in the closing minutes Abbeyside got a second
goal to run out good winners on the night. Next up for the Minors is an August
12th home fixture against Sacred Heart at 7:30pm.
