Harty Cup wrap: Darragh Woods impresses for holders Thurles CBS

Last year’s champions Thurles CBS made it two wins from two in Group C of the Dr Harty Cup as they pulled away from Scoil na Tríonóide Naofa of Doon in the final quarter at Toomevara yesterday.

While the final score was 2-18 to 0-7 in favour of the Tipperary school, only three points separated the sides before Darragh Woods’ converted penalty gave Thurles breathing space.

Woods finished with 1-11 while Brendan Kelly got another late goal and the likes of Michael Ryan, Mikey Connors, Conor Stakelum, Dylan Quirke and Rory Purcell featured heavily among the points. Thurles had led by 0-8 to 0-6 at half-time, having played against the wind in the first half.
