Cusack Cup

Miltown 2-6 Clondegad 1-5

A very strong second half performance ensured Miltown maintained their 100% record in this years Cusack Cup campaign with victory over the visiting Clondegad side.

Playing against a strong wind in the first half Miltown relied on their defensive organisation and a few missed frees to go in at half time behind by a point on a scoreline of 3-2 with Miltowns scores coming from the boot of Eoin Curtin.

The second half was barely a minute old when a Clondegad goal seemed to suggest a tough half for the home side,but Miltown reacted well and goals from Enda Fox and Kieran Malone along with points from Gearoid Curtin (2),Brian Curtin and Eoin Curtin ensured another victory to keep the encouraging start to the year rolling on.

U16 Championship

Miltown 0-2  Kilrush\Killimer 6-10

Miltown U16s continued their championship campaign with a game against yet another amalgamation in a cold and windswept Hennessy Park on Saturday.

Playing against the wind in the first half Miltown were under severe pressure from the throw in and despite battling gamely could not stem the tide of Kilrush\Killimer attacks.

The early stages of the second half saw a Miltown side doing all they could to bring the game to their physically stronger opponents and two points from Diarmaid Meade and Joe Marrinan provided scant reward for all their hard work.

The notion of playing amalgamated sides in Division two is surely one that will have to be reviewed at County Board level for next season to ensure a more level playing field for all the teams involved.

Miltown got their 2014 season off to a winning start against upcoming Championship opponents O'Currys in the O'Gorman Cup on Saturday in a breezy but dry Hennessy Park.
