Junior
Ladies
The
junior ladies were back in action on Thursday evening when they played Molaise
Gaels in the second round of the league. Both sides fielded depleted teams in a
tie that proved to be a very useful workout before their respective minor
finals. Coolera lined out minus seven of the championship final squad, and
after a very close, entertaining contest, were unlucky to lose out by the
narrowest of margins 0-13 to 1-09. Molaise were first to settle and quickly
built up a five point lead, but to their credit the girls worked their way back
into the match and when Cliodhna O’ Sullivan fired to the net, there were just
three between the teams at half time. Attracta Halloran, who had made the
journey back from Dublin to line out, was once again in top form, slotting over
five points, while Keri Mitchell, Amy Deering and Shona Dalton were also on
target. The defence was led by Caoimhe O’ Sullivan at centre back, and Holly
Gilligan was excellent at full-back while the ever-improving Eimear Callaghan
impressed in the corner. A few missed opportunities and the concession of some
poor frees would ultimately be the difference between the sides as the North
Sligo side scored their second win of the year over our girls. Team: Beibhinn
Harte, Amy Hampson, Holly Gilligan, Eimear Callaghan, Grace Molloy, Caoimhe O’
Sullivan, Nadine Deering, Cliodhna O’ Sullivan (1-00), Shona Dalton (0-01),
Ellen Prior, (Cliodhna Davitt), Aislinn Doggett, Keri Mitchell (0-01), Amy
Deering (0-02), Lauren McGarry, (Ciara Lindsay), Attracta Halloran (0-05).
Senior Hurling
Our senior hurlers made their exit from this year’s
championship following a disappointing defeat to Easkey in the final round of
fixtures. Going into the last round, only Tourlestrane were out of the
championship, but with only one win in their opening four games, the reigning
champions knew that victory was essential if they were to proceed. The West
Sligo side however had other ideas and ran out 1-19 to 1-07 winners.
Under
14 Girls
The
under 14 girls suffered defeat to Shamrock Gaels in the championship semi-final
last Monday. Missing a number of players through injury, the girls struggled
throughout and though they were in the tie as the final whistle approached,
late goals from Gaels were to prove costly as the visitors secured their place
in the final on a score of 6-06 to 3-07. On a disappointing evening for the
girls there were some fine individual displays. Nessa O’ Sullivan was
outstanding in defence, as was Mary Kate McPartland, while Ava Griffin
continues to improve with each game. Up front Ellen Walsh worked tirelessly as
did Anna McDaniel and Orlaith Beirne, but it was Grace Bailey who once again
took the game to the opposition from start to finish. Unfortunately, it wasn’t
enough and the girls lost out on a final place. They can now look forward to
their trip to Meath on October 5th, when they play St. Ultan’s in a
friendly re-match of the Féile competition. Team: Úna Griffin, Áine Harte,
Mary-Kate McPartland, Lauren Dalton, Lisa Kilfeather, Ava Griffin Nessa O’
Sullivan, Lulu Mooney, Eva White, Susannah Gilligan, Ellen Walsh, Anna
McDaniel, Orlaith Beirne, Alana Wilson, Grace Bailey, Clodagh Martyn, Orna
Murphy, Hannah Bohan, Orla Sweeney, Lauren Healy.
