Trillick made the trip to Galbally and they returned home with the share off the spoils after it finished 2-13 to 4-7. Aodhan Corry (2), Conor Corry and Daniel McGurren got the goals for the St.Macartans with Tomas McElholm, McGurren, Conor McAleer and Aodhan Corry featuring among the points.

Dromore ran out emphatic winners away to Edendork. Shea O’Donnell top scored for the St.Dympnas with 2-2 to his name with Johnny Cameron impressing at centre half back.

 

Fintona did enough to hold off the challenge of Drumragh on a 3-5 to 2-6 scoreline. The Pearses led by five points at the break with some fine scores from Donnchadh Bennett, Tomas Gallen, Cahir Cassidy and Igor Samulewicz. The Sarsfields hit back in the second half but the hosts held on with solid performances in defence from Rory Partington, Cillian Donnelly and Jack Irwin.

 

 

In Grade 4 Strabane defeated Badoney 6-8 to 4-8 at home. The visitors started well scoring 2-2 before the Sigersons responded with a goal from J Stewart and points from McCay and Harpur and a great team goal finished again by Stewart had the Sigersons 1 up. Badoney responded and finished the half with 1-3 to leave 5 between the sides. Strabane Sigersons with the wind in their backs conceded the 1st point of the 2nd half, but then rattled of 2-3 from play to take a slender lead, the pick of the scores coming from Williamson’s left boot from all of 45 metres.

 

Adrian Plata converted a 30m free after a fine run from himself playing several 1-2’s before being upended. Badoney driven on by a very good Ellis in midfield chipped in another point or two but the home side ran out deserving winners thanks to a piece of brilliance from young Sean Rouse when he collected a ball out on the right side under the score board and in 1 movement turned and kicked a beautiful pass straight into McCay’s chest and he duly dispatched a screamer from 14 yards straight to the roof of the net. A few late points and another major from Stewart ended the scoring.

 

Naomh Eoghan drew 3-7 each away to Moortown with Conn Kelly and Conor Doherty grabbing their goals and Paddy Flanagan, Doherty and Kelly getting among the points as well.

 

Owen Roes were 3-6 to 1-3 winners at home to Tattyreagh. Conall Kelly, Ross Doherty, Fintan Coyle, Daire Houston and Lorcan Kelly hit first half points for the winners with their goal coming from halfback Finn Phillips.
