April 19th - Junior B Hurling Vs St. Finbarrs

Written by  Michael O'Mahony

Passage Junior B Hurlers came back from a 3 goal deficit to beat the Barrs in glorious sunshine in Togher last night. Passage started by letting in 2 dubious goals which on-lookers reckoned were square goals. Passage held in there and got some great scores towards the end of the first half, which featured a great point from veteran B player, Adrian Maxwell, and an opportunist goal by young Adam Farrell.

The score at the break was Passage 1-08 to the Barrs 3-05. Passage drew level and with backs Jason O'Byrne and another veteran, Donie Enright, clearing some great ball Passage eventually drew clear with a great point from Kevin O'Brien. Unfortunately Darragh Harrington, who was playing well, had to come off with a bad smack to his hand and was replaced by Eddie Aherne, who went into corner forward, and Adrian Maxwell moved to half back. Adrian and Kevin O'Brien, who was moved to corner back, proceeded to clear some great ball in the last crucial ten minutes of play. Passage had their first victory, with the score 2-16 to 3-09 at the final whistle. Comhghairdeas.
