Super St Mary’s romp to victory

KERRY football’s love affair with the All-Ireland junior club championship continues as St Mary’s produced a stirring second half display to triumph at Croke Park on Saturday night.

After coming from four points down to draw level at half-time, the Kerry champions outscored their Cavan rivals by 3-6 to 0-1 to deservedly claim the title. It’s the third year in a row a Kerry club have captured this crown, and since the competition started in 2005 it’s the fifth time the cup has gone to the Kingdom.

Kerry senior star Bryan Sheehan has tasted the ultimate glory of capturing Sam Maguire at Croke Park in front of more than 80,000 people. But this will rank as one of his most cherished memories.
