Con Magee’s, Glenravel are this year’s Antrim Division 3 Hurling Feile champions after defeating a young but talented Shane O’Neill’s in the decider at Slemish Park, Ballymena on Saturday.
Originally 6 teams were scheduled to take part in the division 3 section at Slemish Park and Quinn Park but matters were thrown into disarray when Gort na Mona pulled out on Friday night and Laochra Loch Lao failed to show.
It meant a reduced programme of games but the event went ahead with Con Magee’s beating the All Saints-Cloney Gaels combination, Slemish Gaels in their opening game at Quinn Park.
Across the road at Slemish Park Shane O’Neill’s recorded a good win over Davitt’s and with the previous withdrawals taken into account the meeting of Con Magee’s and Shane O’Neill’s was the division 3 decider.
Despite playing into a strong breeze it was the Feystown side who took the game to their opponents early in the game with PJ Kelly and Cormac McMullan firing over early points.
They were rocked back on their heels however when Con Magee’s towering Dylan McMullan raced through and fired to the net and Aiden O’Neill added a point.
McMullan would add another in the second half and Con Magee’s looked to be in control but an excellent goal from Oisin Daly and a point from the same player closed the gap to the minimum but that would be as close as Glenarm got.
A Cormac Higgins point for Con Magee’s edged the Glensmen 2 in front and that was how it finished with the CCC’s Shaun O’Reilly presenting the division 3 Feile Cup to Glenravel captain, Niall Duffin.
