Naomi Carroll goal earns heroic win for Harlequins

Naomi Carroll’s goal 15 minutes from time saw Cork Harlequins record another marquee win on the road as they beat Ulster’s finest, Pegasus, 2-1 at Queen’s in the women’s EY Hockey League.

It was perhaps the finest result on an excellent weekend for Munster clubs with Cork C of I drawing on the road on the men’s side while Bandon advanced to the final four in both the men’s and women’s Irish Hockey Trophy competitions.

For Quins, the result sees them remain four points off leaders UCD but with an easier run-in on paper.
