Boherlahan-Dualla drop down after 33 years at senior level

Both were battling for survival but it was last year’s intermediate champions who proved the stronger in the second half to ensure themselves another term in the top flight.

Boherlahan started in whirlwind fashion against the breeze, a Darragh Hickey goal in the seventh minute giving them a 1-3 to no score lead. Moyne-Templetuohy settled slowly, a Tom Meade goal in the 11th minute doing a lot for their confidence, and by half-time they were ahead 1-11 to 1-7. Boherlahan lost top scorer Darragh Hickey through injury just before the break and he was a huge loss as Moyne took over on resuming. John Hassett’s goal after 44 minutes put them 2-15 to 1-9 ahead, and when Diarmuid Fogarty added another goal six minutes later, it was the end of the road for Boherlahan-Dualla.
