    U14 Ladies Championship Athy 2-08 Vs Suncroft 4-02.

    Athy played host to Suncroft in the ladies U14 championship on Thursday 14th April.  From the start  it was clear to see how both these teams are joint top having being unbeaten in all games to date & Thursday nights encounter proved no different.  The game ended in a draw on a scoreline of Athy 2-08 to Suncroft 4-02.

    It was a most entertaining game & very definately a game of two halves.  Athy had a blistering 1st half performance & went in at halftime having held Suncroft to a single point.  Athy scored 2-05 in the opening half with Rachel Fennin putting Athy on the board with a well executed point. Niamh Mulhall scored 1-03 aided by her forward partner, Grainne Hughes, who scored 1-01.  All Athy's scored came from open play.  Suncroft were not to prove an easy pushover & within minutes of the restart, they had found the Athy goal twice.  Athy only managed to score 3 points in the 2nd half 7 & Suncroft tagged on a further 2 goals.  With the game in injury time & Athy with posession, an excellent defensive rally from Suncroft saw Athy's Aisling Delahunt denied the winning point.

    Both teams are still joint leaders with a share of the points from Thursdays game probably being a fair result.
