Hazelwood College : 1-5
Askeaton :0-3

Earlier this week in perfect conditions Hazelwood Colleges first year B Hurlers took on Askeaton in Dromcollogher.

As the game progressed Ryan Brennan and Patrick Jewitt came into the game and Hazelwood got the first score of the game. However Askeaton were quick to respond with three quick points and the half time score of 1 point to 3 did not look good for Hazelwood College.

Hazelwood came out in the second half full of determination and skill in particular from Kevin Noonan and Ryan Brennan. This surge resulted in Ryan Brennan scoring the only goal of the game. This was quickly followed by 3 points to push Hazelwood into the lead. Askeaton did not give up without a fight but good defending and a series or excellent saves kept Hazelwood in front to the final whistle to continue their unbeaten run.
