Rackard League Final

The Rackard League combination of Taghmon and Caroreigh National Schools lost the Rackard League final to Rosslare on Saturday afternoon in Bellefield by 1-14 to 2-8. It was an excellent game of football and two late goals by Padraig O’Gorman including a screecher to the roof of the net from a 25 yard free gave hope but it was not to be.

Hurling League

Taghmon/Camross played Bannow/Ballymitty in Grantstown in the final round of matches in ACHL 2C on Sunday morning and won by 2-13 to 2-5 (HT 0-2 to 1-5). Cobwebs were evident in the first half as the lads had not hurled in a while and trailed by 6 points at half-time. The second half was much better the highlight being an excellent goal from Eoin Lacey. The scorers were Dave Bury (1 (pen)-6 (3 frees)), Eoin Lacey (1-1 (free)) Martin Coady (0-2), Nicky Cousins (0-2), David Morrissey (0-1), Tom O’Gorman (0-1). The team again plays Clongeen in the final. In last year’s final of ACHL 2D, Taghmon/Camross lost to Clongeen when a perfectly good goal in the last minute was controversially disallowed.

The ACFL 2B final against Ballymitty is this Saturday at 2 pm in Clongeen.
