O’Rourke’s lucky goal gives UUJ edge over St Marys

UUJ 2-11, St. Marys, Belfast 1-13 (aet)

Jordanstown were very lucky to win this all-Ulster clash and it took a lucky goal by Martin O’Rourke early in the second period of extra time to set up a semi-final clash with UCD at the same venue today.

Two superbly fit teams were level seven times before O’Rourke’s goal helped UUJ into a four-point lead but St Marys battled back to cut the deficit to the minimum only to be finally beaten by the clock.
