Shane O’Neill’s victorious in high scoring thriller

U-20 “B” HC Group 2

Shanè Uī Nèill 5-16, Tir Na Nog 6-10.

This game had a goal in the first minute and a goal in the final minute, in the other 58 minutes there were 35 scores.

It really was a ding dong contest featuring two fast, physical sides.

Aidan Scullion’s speculative shot from 80yds out in the first minute eluded the travelling keeper to give the home team a perfect start, Niall pointed a free on 5 minutes, before, on 7 minutes Randalstown goaled from a penalty.

A goal apiece on 10 & 11 minutes, and again on 26 & 27 minutes, Ciaran O’Boyle and Sean O’Boyle getting the goals for the hosts. H/T 3-10, 3-04.

The home team gradually built up a 9 point lead thanks to goals by Kevin O’Boyle and another for Sean O’Boyle and seemed to be comfortable.

The Whitehill men were far from beaten though, and outscored Glenarm in the final quarter 3-3, 0-4. But alas, fell short by 3 points.
