Antrim title to go to Down! - 11/10/02

It does not happen very often - an Antrim hurling title going to a club in Co Down - But Portaferry looked to have achieved that distinction afetr defeating Loughgiel 0 - 14 to 2 - 07 in the Antrim Division one Hurling league yesterday.

With the cut off point for competition just two weeks away, this one point success over Loughgiel and their nearest rivals makes them odds on to pick up the crown.

The sides were level on 6 points each at half time, but by the third quarter the Ards men had eased into a four point lead with Paul Braniff leading the way. Loughgiel responded with a point and then they found the net to draw level. Braniff popped up to hit the winner which could see the Antrim title go to the Ards men.
