Farney girls rule over Ulster

It was a busy weekend of provincial action, with titles in Leinster and Ulster decided yesterday.

Bord Gáis Energy National League Division 1 champions Monaghan laid down a real marker by claiming a third successive Ulster title, courtesy of a 5-25 to 1-8 victory over Donegal in Clones yesterday.

The Farney County rattled Donegal with three goals in a devastating five-minute first-half spell as Caoimhe Mohan, Amanda Casey and Therese McNally found the net.
