Hazelwood College: 2-14
Desmond College : 1-7
Hazelwood College defeated Desmond College, Newcastlewest in the Co. Limerick VEC U16 Hurling Final last Tuesday in Dromcollogher. While the ten point win was fully deserved, the game was a hard fought struggle right to the end. The margin of victory reflected Hazelwoods ability to take scores particularly through Jamie Coughlan who was once again excellent.
Newcastlewest opened the scoring and were clearly up for the game leading by two points after ten minutes before Jamie Coughlan steadied the ship with an excellent 70 yard free. Hazelwood then took over scoring seven points on the trot through Jamie Coughlan (twice), John Nix, Padraig Nolan (three times) and Padraig Cunningham. Desmond rallied back with a goal and a point but Hazelwood responded with a goal of their own through Padraig Nolan who at centre-forward was probably the best player on the pitch in the first half. At the half time whistle Hazelwood College were leading by eight points.
The second half was more of the same with both sides putting in 100% effort. However every time Desmond looked like they were closing the gap Hazelwood popped over a free to keep them at bay. Particularly prominent was Jamie Coughlan with four points. Seamus Sheehan scored a lovely goal and John Nix chipped in another two points before the finish. All that was left was the formalities and Jimmy O Sullivan obliged, thanking all those who were involved with the panel over the year.
Hazelwood College Team and Scorers: H O Gorman, T O Flynn, G Keane, L Mucahy, T Buckley, P ORegan, P Irwin, J O Sullivan, P Cunningham (0-1), S O Connor, P Nolan (1-3), J Nix (1-2) J Coughlan (0-7), D O Sullivan, S Sheehan.
