- Advertisement -

Truagh had an excellent start to their first home game of this year’s league.

Roisin Begley scored a goal after Kilmaley had an early scorable free cleared down the field by Eimear Kelly with Aine O’Loughlin completing the pass to Begley.

Laura Foley added a further three points, all from frees, the most difficult from 65 metres out, near the sideline, excellently converted by Foley.

O’Loughlin got her name on the score sheet with a fine point from play from a tight angle. Kilmaley were startled by the strong start from Truagh and it was 18 minutes into the match before they scored their first from play and followed that up with two more from play to get into the game.

Claire McMahon for Kilmaley went for goal with a 20 metre free and was rewarded for her efforts to put the minimum between the teams with only a few minutes left in the half. Foley scored her first from play to put Truagh two points ahead at the break.

Kilmaley started the stronger this half, scoring two points in as many minutes to level the match. O’Loughlin was on hand for Truagh to restore their half time lead, with one from play and one from a free.

The teams exchanged points 10 minutes into the half, with an excellently taken 65 metre free from Kilmaley and a point from play for goalscorer Begley. Again they exchanged scores 15 minutes into the half, with a Kilmaley free and a Truagh free, taken by Foley. The third quarter was proving as tight as the second quarter in this entertaining league clash.

Hannah Horgan was unlucky for Truagh after her shot on goal was blocked out for a 45 by Kilmaley’s no 1 Denise Lynch, but Truagh still profited as Foley converted the resulting 45 to extend Truagh’s lead to 3.

Aine O’Loughlin added another free and with Foley & O’Loughlin on target with frees Truagh were punishing Kilmaley from anywhere inside their 65 metre line. With three minutes remaining Kilmaley got back within 3 with another converted free. However the last say of the match was reserved for Horgan, who scored a goal on her next attack with a shot in off the upright to put the result beyond doubt. The final score Truagh 2-11 to Kilmaley’s 1-7.

Truagh: Aideen Hogg; Sinead Ryan, Máire Begley, Roisin Powell; Hannah Horgan, Eimear Kelly, Michelle Caulfield; Louise Egan, Sarah Sherlock; Laura Foley, Ellen Horgan, Roisin Begley; Aine O’Loughlin, Michelle Powell, Aine Gully.
