Scores in the first half coming from five out of the six St. Patrick’s forwards: Orla Meagher, Siobhan Vaughan, Úna O’Brien, Niamh Dunne and Niamh Morrissey. The second half was a tighter affair with the Boherhalan Ladies notching 4 consecutive points, however these were cancelled out when St. Patrick’s players Siobhan Vaughan, Deirdre O’Donovan and Orla Meagher all were on target in scoring some finely taken goals. The full time result was: St. Patrick’s 4.12 to Boherlahan B 1.8. This was truly a team performance on the evening, with the St. Patrick’s ladies working very hard across the field.
