Mount Sion GAA Club Notes

Under 19 Hurling Championship

Cnoc Sion 1-15

Roanmore 1-18

Roanmore provided the opposition at a windy St. Saviour’s on Sunday morning last in the first competitive game in this new format, the first half was a competitive affair with Roanmore just edging it before a last minute goal from Sion brought the game back to two points, half time score Cnoc Sion 1-03 Roanmore 0-08, an exciting and eventful second half saw both sides in front for a while with neither being able to gain the upper hand and a draw at full time saw the game head into extra time, in extra time Sion couldn’t find a way through and Roanmore outscored them by three points to win the game , final score Cnoc Sion 1-15 Roanmore 1-18, they now go into the runners up group where they have another chance of progressing.
