The half time score as Drumhowan 0-2 Aughnamullen 2- 6 our only scores coming from 2 Colm Lambe frees. The second half opened with an Aughnamullen own goal. Colm Lambe scored another point followed by a goal.Kevin Mooney then chipped in with a point before another Colm Lambe free. Aidan Duffy finished off Drumhowan’s scoring with a point that could have so easily finished in the net. Aughnamullen held out to take the 2 points. The full time score was Aughnamullen 2-9 Drumhowan 2 – 7 Scorers were Colm Lambe 1-5( 0-4f) Aughnamullen Own Goal Kevin Mooney 0-1 Aidan Duffy 0 – 1

Gerry’s Prepared Veg U14 Div 3 -Drumhowan 4 – 12 Eire Óg 3 – 14 (according to the ref – think we got an extra point – but we won so doesnt matter!! )Another Saturday and another juvenile win this time the manner of victory even more exciting than the U12s as we were behind the whole game and won in the last minute due to a Joseph Duffy goal.
At half time the score was Drumhowan 2 – 6 Éire Óg 3- 9 and by the end of the 3rd quarter their lead had increased to 7 points. However 2 goals and 4 or 5 points in the last quarter meant Drumhowan won at the end. Due to exciting finish we missed one or 2 of the scores so if you know who they are let us know
