Junior 'A'
The Junior ‘A’ Hurlers made a good start to their championship campaign with two victories last week. On Monday 23rd in Puckane, the lads defeated Borris Ileigh on a 1-22 to 1-9 scoreline. The sides were level 0-5 each on the 17th minute but Kiladangan hit a purple patch for the remainder of the half, scoring seven points without reply to secure a 0-12 to 0-5 half time lead. Borris Ileigh reduced the Kiladangan lead to six points with a well finished goal on the 40th minute but the lads responded well, scoring five points without reply. Darren Moran rounded off the scoring with a goal deep into injury time.
They then defeated Kilruane MacDonaghs on a 2-22 to 3-12 scoreline last Friday evening in Nenagh.
Kilruane made a strong start to the game and were ahead by nine points after the first ten minutes. However, Kiladangan improved thereafter and had the Kilruane lead reduced to three by half time - 0-12 to 2-9. A Ruari Gleeson goal early in the second half gave Kiladangan the lead for the first time in the game. A well finished Shane Gleeson goal on the 47th minute helped to stretch Kiladangan's lead to six points as they held out for victory.
