Coen seals it for Sligo

IT Sligo 1-13 NUI Galway 0-8

The Sligo-based college, who face the daunting task of taking on UUJ in the opening round of the Sigerson Cup, were dominant in a sub-standard encounter and led for the entire 60 minutes.

They raced into a 0-5 to 0-0 lead after 13 minutes and though NUI Galway had David McCormack up front to keep them somewhat in touch — the Westmeath man kicked 0-4 — they struggled in other sectors of the park.
