Ballymena stop the rot

UL Bohemians 11 Ballymena 15

Ballymena ended a run of five straight league defeats as they got the better of UL Bohemians at the UL Bowl today.

Bohs' Aidan McNulty kicked an early penalty but the wind-backed Braidmen soon clicked into gear with Paul Campbell and Craig Woods both touching down.

Woods also kicked a penalty and a conversion as Jacques Benade's men took a 15-3 lead into half-time.

Flanker Tommy O'Donnell grabbed his fourth try of the campaign for Bohs and McNulty kicked a second penalty but the visitors ran out deserved winners.

Scorers:

UL Bohemians: Try: Tommy O'Donnell; Pens: Aidan McNulty 2

Ballymena: Tries: Paul Campbell, Craig Woods; Con: Craig Woods; Pen: Craig Woods.
