It was a weekend of mixed fortunes for our club
representatives on Sligo County teams. Donal Conlon and his Sligo Senior
colleagues secured a 1.10 to 0.06 victory over London in the Division 4 clash.
This result leaves Sligo joint top with Laois and Leitrim on 6 points.
Sarah Reynolds and her County Ladies colleagues
secured their first victory of their league campaign with an away win over
Longford on a 0.20 to 2.09 final score line.
It was a different scenario for our U.17
representatives on the County Minor Squad for 2023, Darragh Mastin & Dara
Mostyn who started on the first fifteen in their Minor League clash with Cavan.
A two goal and three points blitz in ten first half minutes from Cavan secured
victory for them. The lads next outing is away to Tyrone on March 11th.
