Kildalkeys third team faced off against Kiltale's second team on Wednesday night in Rathmolyon and despite their best efforts went down by 2-15 to 1-7 .

Kiltale were a bigger more physical team and dominated for long spells and deservedly won the game.

Will power hit 2 frees and Tom McGee from play were Kildalkeys only scorers in the first half while Kiltale notched 1-10.

Only for some  good defending from Conor Flynn in goals Kevin Murray Enda Fitzgerald and Liam Carroll thing might have been a lot worse as the forced their opponents to hit some wides and the margin could’ve been wider.

Power hit 2 more frees an got on the end of a scrambled goal to give his team some hope and Flynn from a monster long range free and one from Sean Heavey closed the gap to 6 but a mistake out the field gave kiltale the ball and a long ball in was caught by Paul Garvey to score their second goal and the hit 2 more points to leave it 2-15 to 1-7 at the finish.
