the

fell
to

There
was
better
times
to be
had
for
the
Seniors
on
Friday
night
when
they
accounted
for
Mitchels
in the
League.
In the
end
Dundrum
finished
three
points
better
on a
2-11
to
1-11
scoreline.
Training
takes
place
tonight
(Wednesday)
at
7.30pm.
This
session
is
crucial
preparation
for
the
Teconnaught
game
that
will
take
place
in

Friday
night
at
7.30pm.
Following
this
game
the

on
Monday
night
at

This
is a
re-arranged
fixture.
* The
Reserves
followed
up
their
draw
with
Teconnaught
with
an
agonising
defeat
to
Bright.
Despite
being
in
possession
for
most
of the
game
the
Duns
kicked
an
incredible seventeen
wides
to
finish
on the
wrong
side
of a
1-13
to
1-08
scoreline.
