B League Division 3 – Round 4

Skryne’s 3rd team are still joint top of the B League Division 3 Table after this narrow win over Duleek/Bellewstown in Duleek tonight (Wednesday). Both teams went into this match unbeaten and were evenly matched tonight, at least on the scoreboard, with Skryne holding on to win by the narrowest of margins 1-14 to 1-13.

The Blues led by 4 points coming up to half time but conceded 2 late points to lead by just 2 at the break. Likewise they were ahead by 4 again going into injury time at the end of the game but again conceded a late goal to win by just 1 point.

Eleven of these players had played some part in the B League Division 1 last night and so were playing their second match in less than 24 hours. This certainly took its toll on their performance as they struggled to reach the heights of last nights game. Nevertheless Skryne were well on top for most of this match and deservedly won out in the end having been six points in front midway through the second half.

This was a great team performance and it would be unfair to single out anybody as all 21 players used played their part in this win.

Having said that it was great to see the return of two players from serious long term injuries – Oisin Gryson and Colm McLoughlin both stepped up to the mark in tonight’s victory.

Skryne – Des McAvinney. Barry Clarke, Timmy Lennon, James Conroy. Keith Donoghue, David Carroll, Frank Carty. David Lynch, David McGoldrick (0-1). John Quinn (0-2), Jason Fox (0-6), Sean Cassidy. Felim O’Rourke, Brian Smyth (0-3), Paul McGoldrick (0-1).
