A
Laura Kelly goal midway through the second half as the home side came out
victorious by the odd goal in four.
It
was the east Mayo side that troubled the scoreboard first as a free from Leah
Johston sailed over the bar. The home side had taken the lead inside ten
minutes with efforts from Ashleagh Salmon and Bree Hession. Playing with the
aid off a strong wind Claremorris pushed on with three more points from Aine
Lynn before Rebecca Kean added two to her sides tally.The gap was narrowed
against the run of play when Katelyn O’Sullivan slalomed her way though the
defence to slot over before Hession cancelled it out down the opposite end.The
last ten minutes of the half belonged to home side as Gemma Foody and Kate
Madden brought the score closer before the aforementioned Madden found the back
of the net with a strike from range.The final two scores of the half came from
Nina Wallace and Laura Kelly to ensure the home side would go in leading at the
break by the minimum.
After
the interval it was the side in blue who extended their lead with a double from
Hession, the first from a dead ball before a second minutes later from play in
between a Madden effort.
With
seven minutes gone the decisive moment of the game came when Hession fed Kean
who assisted Kelly in firing into the net. This was followed up by two more
white flags from Kean to along with another Kelly strike to put her side eight
up just before the midway point of the half. The final quarter of the game
belonged to the home side led by captain Erin Murray. A Gemma Foody effort from
play was then added to when Murray fisted a ball into the opposition net with
twelve left on the clock. With four points in it and ten left the crowd from
both sides were starting to get nervous and with eight minutes left on the
clock a mixup at the back led to Foody putting the minimum between the sides.
This was it though for Ballyhaunis as a Hession free and a fisted score from Isobel Phillips ensured victory for
their side.
