West Sligo neighbours Enniscrone/Kilglass and Easkey both recorded good wins in Division Two of the Fureys Coaches Senior Football League last Saturday evening.

At Quigabar, Enniscrone/Kilglass scored five goals against an understrength Ballymote in a 5-14 to 0-5 win.

The home side were also without a number of players, but made relatively light work of the visitors.

0-8 to 0-2 ahead at the break, Enniscrone/Kilglass played into the breeze in the opening half but still made good inroads in attack.

Brian Coleman was the main marksman for the home side in the first half, while Ballymote’s threat was mainly in the form of frees where Peter Lyons slotted over twice.

Although dominating possession, Enniscrone/Kilglass failed to take full advantage with Ballymote defending well at times.

However, after the restart the home side asserted their dominance with five goals. John Paul Carden and Robert Jacob both bagged two goals, while top scorer Coleman also raised a green flag.

Ballymote battled, but only managed three second half points.

The win moves Enniscrone/Kilglass onto four points having already beaten St Farnan’s, while Ballymote remain rooted to the bottom of the table having failed to win any of their four games to date.

Elsewhere, Easkey bounced back from a heavy defeat against St John’s last week to beat Owenmore Gaels 3-11 to 2-5 at Castletown.

The Sea Blues now have three wins to their name and currently occupy second place.

Owenmore Gaels won Division Three in 2015 as well as the Junior ‘A’ championship, and have performed relatively well on their return to intermediate despite not registering a win in their first three games.

They trailed here by 1-6 to 0-3 after a competitive opening half.

The home side netted three times over the hour – Kevin Duffy, Emmet Healy and Dylan Sloyan the scorers – to secure a valuable win, though their opponents battled hard throughout.

Owenmore Gaels worked hard and scored goals through Ryan Phillips and Niall Hodgins, but ultimately Easkey’s experience proved too much for the Collooney side.
