JAFL V Ballygarvan – 21/2
Published February 22, 2019
Ballygarvan 0-14, Shamrocks 1-10
A spirited performance by Shamrocks at Liam McCarthy Park, in a close game where there was little between the teams throughout the contest. Ballygarvan kicked the winner in the final minute and were it not for some wayward shooting Shamrocks could have fared better.
Shamrocks led 1-5 to 0-7 at the break and were first to score in both halves. With some more time on the training pitch, we can look forward to better days ahead.

The game which was played before the Harty Cup Final, saw Rochestown defeat Hamilton High School Bandon and win their first Munster Hurling Title ever in front of over 7000 people. They will now go on to play the Connacht representatives in the All Ireland Semi-Final.
Sean lined out at corner forward and was on the scoresheet early in the game when Rochestown asserted themselves and let 1 -3 to 0 -1, thus giving them the momentum and confidence to stay the course and make college history.
