The second half saw conditions improve and playing with the aid of the breeze Skryne opened the scoring early and controlled the game despite Moylagh coming back with a number of scores. The game was put to bed in the last quarter by a Roisin McManus goal after a patient build-up and an excellent cross-field pass by Ciara Smyth. This was a great overall team performance from the ladies.
