opened the scoring inside the first minute. Knocknagree dominated the next ten minutes firing three

unanswered points. P McGee kicked a point from play but was quickly cancelled out by the

opponent’s white flag to leave the score 0-2 to 0-4 after 15 minutes. Mitchelstown dominated the

next quarter and points from Beston 0-3 S Walsh, J Mullins and J Sheehan left the halftime score 0-8

to 0-4.Knocknagree started the second half with two quick points but points from Beston and McGee

restored town’s four point advantage.The next 15m saw Knocknagree completely dominate and four

unanswered points saw the sides level with three minutes left on the clock.S Walsh restored the lead
