On Saturday evening the intermediate team made the long journey to Glenamoy a profitable one, defeating Kilcommin by 1-16 to 0-10 in the secondary league. Davitts were on top throughout the game, with the outstanding Keith Glynn orchestrating matters from midfield, and led by 0-7 to 0-5 at halftime. Davitts pulled away from their hosts in the second half, with the forwardline looking very lively, to secure the two points.
The Davitts goal came with five minutes remaining with young sub Michael Waldron and Michael Conroy linking up effectively before Waldron’s goal effort was superbly saved by Fintan Ruddy, but Aidan McTigue reacted quickest to fist the rebound to the Kilcommin net, to ensure the two league points were heading to South Mayo. Davitts had excellent performers in Colm Boyle, James Cummins, Paul Carey (beginning to revel in his new role as centre half back), Keith Glynn, Liam Kearns, Aidan McTigue, Ronan McNamara and Michael Conroy.
Davitts team: Paddy Kirrane, Frankie Barrett, Luke Ronayne, Colm Boyle, James Cummins, Paul Carey, Colm Roche, Keith Glynn, Jonathon Clarke, Liam Kearns (0-6), Keith Prendergast, Aidan McTigue (1-3), Richie Kilkenny, Ronan McNamara (0-3), Michael Conroy (0-4). Subs used: Tommy Mitchell, Michael Waldron and Laurence Daly.
