Eurotech JFL – last Friday night the 5th of May the senior fell to a heavy defeat to the home team Seán Mc Dermott’s. The game was basically all one way traffic. After the end of the first quarter Seáns had run into a 1-3 to 0-1 lead the sole point coming from the boot of Owen Quinn. However things didn’t get much better in the second quarter with only a Ciarán Duffy point to leave the half time score Drumhowan 0-2 Seán Mc Dermotts 1-9 to 0-2. Seáns started the second half with a bang scoring 2-1 in a little over 5 minutes before Drumhowan scored 3 unanswered points and Seáns remained scoreless for 10 mins. However they finished with a flourish to leave the full time score line Drumhowan 0-6 Sean Mc Dermotts 4-15
