St Patrick’s Skibbereen claimed their first Rebel Og Allianz Sciath na Scol H4 title after they impressively defeated Kilmurry at SuperValu Páirc Uí Chaoimh.

It was a tight affair in the first half, but St Patrick’s pulled away with a strong second half performance.

Kilmurry’s Lachlann Kearney Burke won the ball in the middle of the park and went on a solo run which saw him finish with a powerful strike to hit the net. Kilmurry were two behind as half time approached.

However, Patricks finished the half strongly and when Dylan O’Callaghan hit in a high ball around the Kilmurry box, Hourihane gathered it and fired past the keeper, leaving the scoreboard reading 2-3 to 1-1 at half-time.

St Patrick’s came out strong in the second half and with the swirling wind, which caused the Kilmurry goal to fall down at one stage, picking up, they found their shooting range.

Foley started brightly hitting 1-1. Andrew O’Donovan added another white flag and St Patricks were starting to pull away from a battling Kilmurry side.

Dylan O’Callaghan and Padraig O’Donovan both scored points before O’Donovan hit St Patrick’s fourth goal of the game. Andrew O’Donovan completed the scoring with a point to see St Patrick’s take home their first title.
