COUNTY
LEAGUE FINAL DEFEAT
Senior County
League Final 2002
Kilmoyley 1-6
Ballyheigue 1-12
Kilmoyley failed to reproduce the
form that saw them win their 18th County title a fortnight earlier, when they were
defeated by Ballyheigue at Austin Stacks park on Sunday 13th October. Having played poorly
in the first half Kilmoyley still only trailed by three points 1-6 to 0-6. Within five
minutes Kilmoyley had drawn level thanks to an opportunist goal by Billy Brick. But
amazingly this was to be Kilmoyley's final score of the match. Ballyheigue went on to add
a further six points.
It was a disappointing
performance by Kilmoyley, but on the day the Ballyheigue players showed more hunger and
determination and deserved their win. For Kilmoyley, it was certainly a wake up call in
advance of the Munster QF clash with Blackrock and hopefully one from which they will
learn. If not a drubbing could be on the cards.
