Darragh Cross 1-11
Ardglass 1-6
Darragh Cross got
their season off to a winning start
with a workmanlike performance on
Easter Monday at home to Ardglass.
Darragh were never behind in this
game, after getting off to a perfect
start when Marty Healy finished well
to the bottom corner of the net
despite being off balance. Eoin
Mageean increased the lead with a
point, before Ardglass came back into
it with three unanswered points. A
Gareth McGovern free left Darragh
leading 1-5 to 1-3 at half time. An
early point in the second half from
Marcus Miskelly increased the lead,
but Ardglass were soon back level when
a ball across the box was punched to
the net. Eoin Mageean and Tom McMahon
both scored points in reply, but
Ardglass battled hard and were level
again following two more points. Paddy
Murray and Paul McCargo then exchanged
points, but that was to be Ardglass’
last score of the match. Marcus
Miskelly, Eoin Mageean and Gary
Kennedy all fired over, before two
late frees from Miskelly and McGovern
sealed a five-point victory for the
home side. Best for Darragh were
Dermot Timoney, Paddy Murray, Eoin
Mageean and Marty Healy.
