Ballycastle 5-12 Carey 1-22
Ballycastle Reserves hit five second half goals to beat neighbours Carey Faughs in Division 2 of the Antrim Hurling League on Pitch 2 at Pairc MacUíllin on Wednesday night, a win that boosts their chances of survival in the division.
Ballycastle led by a point at half time by 0-10 to 1-06 but Carey moved ahead with a goal from Conor McBride early in the second half. The Town closed the gap with a point from Criosti McAuley but two more for the visitors from Conor McBride and one from Paedar McVeigh saw the Faughs move six clear.
A Gavin McToal goal cut the gap and one from Ccormac Dallas brought the black and amber back into the game but Carey appeared to have it all wrapped up when they moved six clear with just ten minutes left for play. However Ballycastle produced a strong finish down the home straight and goals from Vincent McDonaghue and Criosti ‘Bamba’ McAuley saw them turn the game on its head and get them over the line with a 5-12 to 1-22 victory.
