Wicklow relieved to edge past luckless students

Wicklow secured victory over Carlow thanks to two gifted own goals in this O’Byrne Cup game at Blessington yesterday.
Carlow scored the opening point by corner-forward Tom Sheil but Wicklow led 0-3 to 0-2 after 12 minutes. The students regained the initiative in the 29th minute when Barry McHugh converted a penalty for the first of his two goals.
