Wexford withstand Déise’s late rally

Camogie League first round

Wexford hung on by the skin of their teeth after Beth Carton led a late rally for 14-woman Waterford that almost saw them reel in their south east neighbours in a Littlewoods Ireland Camogie League Division 1 encounter at WIT that really came to life in the final quarter.

The Déise girls fell just short though and their visitors made the short journey up the Coast Road with the vital points, 1-11 to 1-10.
