Girls had ‘a point to prove’ says Daly
THE delighted expression on James Daly’s face after the game said it all. The Armagh man admitted; “The girls, I think, felt they had a point to prove after they lost to Carlow last week. “London came out of the blocks flying but we got to grips with it. “They couldn’t contain Eimear (Smyth), Blaithin (Bogue) […]
Ulster glory would be a dream for captain Andrea
ANDREA Gordon’s rise to becoming Fermanagh captain is a surprising one.

By Mark McGoldrick AT just 20 years of age, Tom Keenan is a fine hurler and he will make the opposition pay the price given half a chance. Keenan burst onto the county hurling scene in 2019.
