Ulster schools’ Camogie
Senior Shield final: Loreto Coleraine 2-16 Our Lady’s Newry 3-9
LORETO College Coleraine produced a superb team performance to overcome Our Lady’s Newry in a very competitive Ulster schools’ Senior Shield final in MUSA on Friday.
At the back, Treasa Passmore had an excellent game well supported by Fiona Cassidy and Brenda Mullan. Up front Kerry Rose Draine was the star player and ultimately the difference between the teams at the end with a goal and eight points. Clíodhna Boylan was also to the fore and her early points gave Loreto a good platform in the game.
Sarah McTague added a point in between those from Boylan and Drain and the Coleraine College led by 1-9 to 2-3 at the break, the goal coming from Boylan after 14 minutes.
The Newry school however left themselves well in the game with goals from Jessica McCreesh and Emer Starrs.
But Dunloy’s Kerry Rose Draine stepped up a gear after the break with a series of points and then a superb goal. Clonduff forward Alannah Power gave Our Lady’s some hope with a goal and a couple of points, but Coleraine were never headed and finished strongly with a couple of points from Draine.
