Rossies power to minor title

ROSCOMMON captured their 12th Connacht minor football title and first since winning the 2006 All-Ireland title with an easy win over a very disappointing Galway yesterday.

Roscommon wrapped up the issue in the opening half when they were playing against the strong wind but still managed to lead 1-4 to 0-1 at the break.

Galway’s only score came after two minutes from wing-back Cathal Mulryan and they shot seven wides from there to the interval with the elements at their backs.
