Newmarket do the damage early to see off Ballinora
A brilliant start for Newmarket was half the battle. They led at the break 0-9 to 0-2 and despite letting Ballinora back into in the second-half they still had enough in reserve to run out comfortable winners.
Newmarket, coached by former player Danny Culloty, illustrated their scoring ability from the outset. Although falling behind to a pointed free from Colin O’Shea in the second minute, they reeled off seven unanswered points before Ballinora notched their second point from a Ben Aherne free. All the while, the Newmarket full-forward line was benefitting from their midfield dominance, and they gladly asserted themselves with some wonderful points.
