O’Connors lead by example for Newtown

NEWTOWN can thank the O’Connor twins, Ben and Jerry, for their SHC win over Bishopstown at Mallow yesterday.

The city side’s late goal from Michael Power threatened to upset the Newtown apple cart, but Ben, Jerry and younger brother John rattled off the late, late points to see Newtown home.

Scorers for Newtown: B. O’Connor 0-8 (0-4 frees); J. O’Connor 0-4; J. O’Connor 0-2; R. Clifford, JP King, PJ Copse 0-1 each.
