KERRY PETROLEUM COUNTY INTERMEDIATE CHAMPIONSHIP   Q/F

Kilcummin 2-16 Ballymacelligott 0-14.

Our senior team qualified for the Intermediate semi-final with a good win in Kilcummin on Saturday last. We now face Glenflesk this Sunday @ 1p.m. in Spa.

The first half was keenly contested and there was never more than two points between the teams. Kevin McCarthy and Mikey Casey were sharing most of the scores between them until Brendan Kealy pointed a 45 just before half time to leave us ahead 0-10 to 0-09 at the break. The second half started without Kieran Murphy who was quite influential in the previous 30 minutes due to injury. However we started the third quarter in devastating form with a Philip O’ Leary goal followed shortly afterwards by a similar score from Mikey Casey after great work from Kevin McCarthy. Both Kevin McCarthy and Mikey Casey added to their total before the O'Shea brothers Paul and Mark chipped in. Cian Foley who had a fine game rounded off the scoring on a good display. Ballymac did have some great opportunities in the second half but our defence held firm and when they got breached, Brendan Kealy was in great form with some fine saves, one in particular from a Jack Joy effort. Kevin Gorman was also helped off the field late in the game and he too will struggle to be fit for the next game. Team and scorers Brendan Kealy (‘45). Chris O’ Leary, Dara Stack, James Williams, Sean O’ Leary, Dara O’ Callaghan, Keelan O’ Shea, Paul O’ Shea (Capt) (0-1) Kevin Gorman, James Nagle, Kieran Murphy, Cian Foley (0-2), Mikey Casey ( 1-05), Kevin McCarthy, (0-7), Philip O’ Leary (1-0). Subs used, Colm Kelleher,  Mark O’ Shea, Dan Moynihan, Jack Fogarty, Noel Duggan and Mikey O’ Shea. A special word to all the club members who volunteered their time during this championship to make sure each event went off successfully and to Bren McCarthy for her singing of the national anthem. Thanks also to Denis Healy for the use of his field for parking and the members of the CCE scheme for their assistance at programs printing and field maintenance and preparation.
