Ballincollig secure historic first title
A powerful second-half performance saw them overturn a two point half-time deficit to eventually dethrone holders Fr O’Neill’s.
O’Neill’s, backed by the wind, had the better of the early exchanges with Joe Millerick and Paudie McMahon helping them into a 0-7 to 0-5 interval lead. However, Ballincollig resumed in determined mood and were on equal terms by the three-quarter mark. Man of the match Cian Dorgan, Stephen Bunyan and Diarmuid McDonnell pushed them 0-10 to 0-8 as the game petered out.
