BT MacLarnon Cup quarter-final :
St Mary’s Belfast 2-11 St Eunan’s Letterkenny 1-9
St Mary’s Belfast joined St Pius X Magherafelt in the semi-finals of the BT MacLarnon Cup building up an early head of steam to see off St Eunan’s Letterkenny at MUSA yesterday.
They were 1-3 up – Matt McKiernan the goal-scorer – before Letterkenny opened their account, and although Conor McEniff’s goal pulled St Eunan’s back in to the game, Lámh Dhearg’s Mark Jordan buried a second goal close to half-time to leave his side 2-5 to 1-3 up at the break.
Although St Mary’s stretched their lead to 8 points midway through the second half, Letterkenny fought back with 6 points in a row to narrow the gap to 2 points with 4 minutes to go.
St Mary’s goalie Jack McCrea then pulled off a great save and his side broke upfield for sub Karl Maxwell and Brendan Bradley to seal the victory.
St Mary’s : Matt McKiernan 1-1, Mark Jordan 1-0, Brendan Bradley 0-2, Kevin Quinn 0-2, Daragh McGuinness 0-2, Karl Maxwell 0-2, Mark Cummins 0-1, Ciaran Orchin 0-1.
