Ballyhooly 1-13 Shanballymore 0-11.

We travelled to Ballyhooly last Wednesday night for round 6 of the div 1 hurling league but unfortunately we couldn’t get over the line and gain the two points on offer. We were down a lot of regular players due to work, holidays and injuries and over the hour we just seemed to be very flat and couldn’t get into top gear against a very lively Ballyhooly outfit.

This was of course our fifth game in twelve days and it seemed to take effect on most of the lads especially in the second half when they were hoping to push on. Only a point in arrears at half time 0-6 to 0-5 we seemed to be in good shape to mount a challenge and after 15mins of the second half it was all square at 0-9 each but unfortunately Ballyhooly got in for a very soft goal and followed this up with two quick fire points and they held this lead until the final whistle to run out winners 1-13 to 0-11.
