Knockbride 0-9 Kingscourt 1-14

The Seniors maintained their unbeaten run with a fantastic 1-14 to 0-9 victory in Knockbride last Saturday evening. On a beautiful evening between the top two in the division the conditions were perfect and despite Knockbride opening well once Anthony Corcoran found the net to put us 1-2 to 0-4 ahead, the side never looked back.

Some superb scores right through the team gave us a 1-5 to 0-6 halftime lead.

If the first half had been good, the second half reached even greater heights with the defence showing an unbreakable resolve and the forwards playing some superb ball and knocking over scores from every angle.

Wouldn’t want to forget the midfield lads, who ran themselves into the ground.

Just to top things of, a last minute penalty save from Cathal McCabe ensured that everyone played a starring role in the victory.

There is no doubt that the team have a bounce in their step now, however they face another tough tie this Saturday when they face Drumlane down the park at 6.30pm.

Having managed two tights wins over Drumlane in the past two years, the side will know that another tough battle will be on the cards.

However, if the same attitude continues to be shown, then hopefully come 8pm on Saturday evening, we will remain top of Division Two.
