Antrim get early grip to foil Tipp

Antrim 2-9 Tipperary0-9

Played on the ground where the first public camogie game was staged in 1904 (between two Dublin clubs), Antrim seized an early initiative though Edel Mason's goal in the 18th minute. The Northern girls had a two-point lead, (1-6 to 0-6) at half-time.

Playing with the wind for the second half, Tipperary started promisingly with an early point from a Trish O'Hanlon free, but from there on progress was limited.
