Senior 1
With Senior Champions St. Vincents on a bye week in Round 1, the attention was solely on the other two sides in the Group 1 competition. And early this morning both Lucan Sarsfield and newly promoted Kilmacud Crokes didn’t disappoint.
In what was described as a good tough encounter, Lucan got up and running, seeing off the stiff challenge of Crokes on a close 2-14 to 2-11 scoreline. Crokes get a week off next week, while Lucan will have to visit Marino to entertain St. Vincents.
Elsewhere in Group 2 there were wins for Ballyboden St. Endas and Naomh Jude. Boden secured their first set of points with a convincing 3-13 to 0-08 against the ladies from Faughs/Celtic.
Next week Ballyboden will head for Mobhi Road were their opponents Na Fianna will be hoping for some better fortune. Their trip to Tymon Park this afternoon ended in a 1-08 to 0-08 defeat to 2019 runners up Naomh Jude. A second half goal ended up being crucial and the difference with Judes picking up the win. They’ll visit Faughs for their Round 2 encounter.
