Killian Kingston the star in St Stephen’s Day outing

Killian Kingston was the standout player at Grange on St Stephen’s Day as he teamed up with Gary Daly to beat James O’Donovan and Michael Bohane by almost a bowl.

O’Donovan and Daly were slightly left with their opening shots, with Daly taking the tip by 5m. Kingston pushed out the lead with a great second bowl to Whelton’s gate. O’Donovan steadied things with a good third to the stud farm. Daly pushed his bowl left and it missed sight past the stud.

Bohane then played a great bowl to the bend, but it got trapped in a pothole just short of sight. Kingston made clean sight with his. O’Donovan skinned the bend with his next and it raced to Holland’s. Daly’s reply was too far right and just beat that tip by 5m.
