Senior Semi-Finals
The line-up for the Halpenny Travel Senior Championship semi-finals is now known after the weekend’s quarter-finals.
St Fechins booked their place on Friday evening by winning an exciting encounter with Clan na Gael in Termonfeckin. With defences on top the two sides were fairly evenly matched in the low scoring first half but the Fechins went into the break leading 1-5 to 1-2.
As second goal for Rachael Kinch, a strong defensive effort from their backs and some good scoring from forwards Ava Briscoe and Sara Moore allowed the home team to pull away in the last quarter, eventually winning on a final score of 2-11 to 1-7.
The Fechins will play Roche Emmets in the semi-final, who had a 0-20 to 2-05 win at home over Newtown Blues.
Geraldines and St Patricks will make up the other semi-final.
The Gers had a comfortable victory over old rivals Cooley, winning with a scoreline of 5-08 to 0-06, while St Patricks had a big victory over the Divsion 1 league winners St Brides in Knockbridge, with a final score of 2-11 to 1-07 for the Lordship team.
