Drumquin’s hopes of making a serious challenge in Junior football this season suffered quite a setback with a very heavy defeat against what can only be described as a rampant Errigal Ciaran Thirds. The Wolfe Tones started well with early points from Eamon Teague and Ryan Mc Callion but from there on it was all down hill. In spite of two late points approaching half time by Niall Mc Aloon, the Drumquin lads still trailed at half time 1-4 to 0-5, James Harte with the Errigal goal.

The second half was an even sorrier tale for Drumquin who managed to register only three points in that thirty minute period . Barry Gormley was on target early in the second half but Errigal continued to dominate and eased to a 2-11 to 0-8 win with Eamon Teague adding two late points for his side. Michael Harte got the visitors second goal as well as contributing a number of points with Damian McDermott on target as well.

Carrickmore Thirds are finding life in Junior football continues to be a real challenge. They met one of the fancied teams in this division Aghaloo this afternoon and were on the receiving end of a very heavy defeat. They trailed 4-6 to three points at half time and by the time the final whistle sounded the men in green and gold had suffered another heavy defeat losing 6-19 to 1-3. Shane Magee netted his side’s sixth goal of the game, his first ever goal for Aghaloo.

Beragh suffered a heavy defeat at home to Dungannon today losing out 3-10 to 0-6 with Patsy Quinn and Stephen Mc Kenna getting their two first half goals for the Clarkes as they bossed the first thirty minutes to lead 2-6 to 0-2 at the break. It was a fairly facile win for the East Tyrone side and Conor Mc Ginn rounded off the goal scoring for the winners while Beragh failed to score from play in the hour.

Drumragh got a good win today over a Clogher side who just never got going. The Sarsfields knocked over ten points to their opponents seven and coped much better with the elements. Shane Cleary top scored for the winners with 0-4 while Gavin Quinn, Gareth Starrs, Paul Maguire, Ciaran Hutchinson and Mickey Rodgers also got their names on the score board, Mark Bogue and Emmett McConnell with points for Eire Ogs. Derrytresk made it three wins out of three when they won 1-11 to 1-4 away to Dregish. Niall Gavin scored the visitors goal with Mickey Rea among their points.

Tattyreagh suffered another home defeat this time to Glenelly who enjoyed a 2-13 to 1-7 win. The visitors were 1-7 to 0-1 ahead at the break with scores  from Cathal Nicholas 0-5, Conal Mc Cullagh 1-0 and a point each from Kevin Mc Anena and Shane Mc Bride. The second half saw some improvement from the home side but it was Glenelly who had their shooting boots on as they continued to build on their total. A second goal this time from Mc Anena and points from Nicholas and Seamus Harkin crowned an excellent day at the office for Glenelly. Conor Taggart was in fine form for the hosts with 1-5 to his name.

Killeeshil maintained their one hundred percent record with an emphatic 4-20 to 1-5 win at home to Owen Roes. Packie McMullan scored two goals for the winners with his brother John also finding the net as did county midfielder Kevin Hughes.
