Clinical Scoil Maria Assumpta take early control

Four points in the opening eight minutes, from Sophie Thompson (two), Ciara Golden and Nicole Olden, set the Ballyphehane school on their way before a brilliant ground shot from Jesse Mendez flew to the top corner of the Scoil Mhuire net.
Ciara Hill’s point made it 1-5 to 0-0 at half-time and the centre-forward dominated proceedings at the start of the second-half. She added two more points to further buttress the lead, though Scoil Mhuire began to threaten a comeback as Allie Ní Chléirigh pointed and then Amy Ní Mhurchú linked well with Anna Ní Chreimín de Buitléir to fire to the net.
