Ballinora make up for slim loss last year
Allianz Sciath na Scol, C3 final
Camogie President Kathleen Woods was impressed with the standard in this thrilling Sciath na Scol C3 final in Páirc Uí Rinn yesterday. Two committed teams, with the work-rate of Scoil Bhailenóra proving the decisive factor.
Bhailenóra lost the 2018 final by a point and this time had to come from two goals down. Points by Ellie McAulliffe, Jane Larkin (2), Eliza Laverty and Rachael Murphy left them down 0-5 to 2-0 at the break – Aoife Ní Chianáin and Niamh Nic Gafraidh the scorers for Dúglaise.
Laverty played a captain’s part helping her side take the lead before Amy O’Riordan’s goal pushed Scoil Bhailenóra four up. GS Dúglaise fought back through an Orna Ní Shuilleabháin goal, only for Scoil Bhailenóra to close in style with Larkin goaling.
J Larkin (1-2), E Laverty (0-4), A O’Riordan (1-0), R Murphy and E McAuliffe (0-1 each).
A Ní Chianáin, O Ní Shuilleabháin and N Nic Gafraidh (1-0 each), C Nic Suibhne (0-1).

First half goals from twins Daniel and James Coakley put Ballinadee 2-5 to 1-4 ahead at the interval but Donnchadh Murphy’s goal kept Scoil Bhailenóra in the hunt.
It continued end-to-end with spectacular scores on both sides, Colum Morgan and the Coakleys to the fore for Ballinadee who appeared they might edge it.
Ben Mayer drew Scoil Bhailenóra level at the end of normal time with Long’s goal in the first period of extra-time the pivotal score.
