IHC B: Wolfe Tones book final spot

Conor Sheppard Wolfe Tones

Bhulf Tón 4-16 Kildalkey 1-15 in Moylagh

Bhulf Tón qualified for the final of the IHCB with a comprehensive win over Kildalkey in Moylagh. 

Trim’s victory over  Boardsmill on the same night ensured Tones’ place in the final place where they will await the winners of a repeat Trim Boardsmill contest. Interestingly Bhulf Ton drew with both teams in the round robin stages so a tight final is expected no matter who comes through.

A really good first half display saw Tones with a 3-10 to 1-6 advantage at the interval and they kept Kildalkey at arm’s length in the second half which saw both teams add nine points to their tallies. The goals made a huge difference added to Evan Curley’s accuracy from placed balls.

Wolfe Tones scorers: Evan Curley 0-9 (0-7 frees). Sean McKeown 1-3. Conor Sheppard 1-0. Éanna Harrington 1-0. Thomas Donegan 1-0. Eoin Donegan 0-1. Matthew Vaughan 0-1. Kyle Moran 0-1. Alex Timmons Sheehy 0-1.
