However that didn’t stop Ardglass with Patrick James and Karl O’Neill scoring Ardglass’s 2 vital goals and the likes of Magee, Feenan and Rooney tallying points on the scoreboard.

Ardglass’s best team performance came in the later stages of the second half when both teams were level at one stage. *MINOR TRAINING* Monday evenings at 6:50pm in Ardtole – it’s vital that ALL players attend to help prepare for the Semi Final.
