Cobh GAA Notes 9th Sept

Junior Hurlers Win: Cobh 0-15 Cloyne 1-04.  Cobh’s junior team had a rare championship win on Thursday last when they overcame Cloyne. In the true traditions of B-grade hurling Cobh fielded a team which mixed the experience of Brendan Kearney and Pat Looney, who both played in this grade back in the 1980’s, with the youth of U18 players Darragh O’Keeffe and Mark Ronan. Cobh were always on top in this game with scores coming from Dave McCarthy, Brendan Meaney, Darren Tallon, Martin Coffey and Trevor Byrne, who made a re-appearance in the Cobh jersey while back from the U.S. for a short stay. Well done to all involved and best of luck in the next round.
