LGFA Our Senior Ladies hosted Southern Gaels in the semi-final of the Donal Curtin Cup on Monday last. We lined out without a large number of players due to injury, holidays and weddings. We got off to a great start with Kate Stack, scoring a goal followed by a point from Aoife O'Donoghue. Kate Stack, who was well supported by Sarah Cooper and Ava Sheehan, added a further two points. Strong defending from Karena O'Leary, Lillie Foley, Holly Power, Liz Moloney, Ciara Brannock and Casey O'Donoghue help give us a 1:03 to 0:04 lead at the break. Southern Gaels started the second half strongly, kicking the first four points of the half. However, a point from Amanda Brosnan, along with a great save from Jess Leahy kept us in touch. Our opponents kicked further points but some great attacking play by Laura O'Shea, Selina Collins, Christine Cooper and Muireann O'Brien led to the point from Amanda Brosnan to leave just a goal in it. Despite laying siege in the last few minutes, we just couldn't score the important goal to equalize. Next up is the league which begins on July 15th.
