Cruppen went two points clear only for Brendan Maguire to narrow the gap with a point from play Cruppen hit the net after 20 minutes to go four ahead but Silverbridge replied with three fine points from Damian McCann, Brendan Bellew and a Nial Traynor free. A defensive lapse let Cruppen in for their second goal followed by a point.

Silverbridge U14 team had a
deserved win against Mullabawn on home on Tuesday
night. Despite missing a number of
players through holidays, Silverbridge produced a
fine performance with all players working very hard throughout what was a
keenly contested game. Mullabawn took an early lead and controlled the early
stages over the game, however Silverbridge fought
back with goals from Cormac McKinley & Pauric Keating to lead at half time, in the second half
despite some Mullabawn pressure the defence worked hard not to concede any goals with and took
the chances that came our way in the forwards with some good scores from Aodhan Quinn & Mark Garvey in particular. Overall this was a great team performance and
all players should be proud of how hard they worked on the night to get a
result. Team;K
