Salthill-Knocknacarra gaining momentum

Salthill-Knocknacarra remain on course for successive Galway SFC titles for the first time after holding off the challenge of a Caltra side forced to start without Michael Meehan.

They face city rivals St James’ in the semi-finals after the Mervue/Renmore outfit saw off another city outfit, St Michael’s at the weekend.

But Corofin, winners of 11 of the last Galway 22 crowns, sent out another title warning when they hammered Leitir Mor, scoring six goals in the process. They will face the winners of a replay between Milltown and Cortoon Shamrocks in the other semi-final.
