Youthful Ballyhea bag vital goals to advance

BALLYHEA scored three goals at Páirc Uí Rinn last night to see off the challenge of Valley Rovers in round two of the Premier IHC.

The standard of hurling was nothing to write home about but the commitment levels compensated for that in front of a very small crowd.

The winners, who fielded a youthful side, had outstanding players in Barry Coleman, Michael Morrissey, Kieran Morrissey and Maurice O’Sullivan, while it was no fault of the evergreen Jeremy Hurley, Eoin Manning and Eamon Collins that Rovers lost.
