Senior Status Secure following Breckans win

Miltown 2-8 St. Breckans 0-7

Miltown secured senior status for 2008 by defeating St.Breckans in the Senior B quarter final. Miltown await the winners of the Shannon Gaels/O'Curry's replay in the semi final.

St. Joseph's started poorly but still led at half time 5 points to 4, with scores from Garry Egan, Kevin Keavey & Dessie Molohan. A Graham Kelly point early in the second half pushed Miltown further in front and St. Breckans seemed to be loosing touch as Eoin Curtin made it 7 to 4 from a placed ball. Breckan's problems worsened when Brian Curtin raced through the centre to fire a shot goalward, Hawes made a fantastic save but the ball was bundled home by Dessie Molohan with some help from the Lisdoon defence. Michael Talty and Garret Hynes were introduced with Talty making an immediate impression with a nice point. He followed this up with a well taken goal which will do his claim for a regular start no harm whatsoever.

Miltown Team: C.O'Loughlin, S.Curtin, K.Burke, E.Malone, B.Curtin, Gordon Kelly, M.Hehir, Graham Kelly, S.Meade, G.Egan, M.Barry, M.Neylon, E.Curtin, D.Molohan, K.Keavey. (Subs) G.Hynes for G.Egan, M.Talty for D.Molohan & C.Lafferty for M.Barry
Scorers: D.Molohan 1-3, M.Talty 1-1, E.Curtin, Graham Kelly, K.Keavey & G.Egan all 1pt.
