U14 HURLING 10

Last Updated Sun, 20 June, 2010 10:27 AM

Wed 9th June U14 A H C Aghada 1-11 Midleton 5-7.

Aghada under 14 hurlers put in a fine performance in East Cork championship
Midleton GAA pitch was the venue for the first round under 14 hurling A grade championship match on Wednesday 9th June. With a 7pm throw in by Sarsfield's referee Aiden Barry the meeting of these two sides was always going to be a close affair. The first half yielded good hurling with Aaron Stafford opening Aghada's account after four minutes with a pointed free. It was followed by points from Jake O’Donoghue and John Looney. However, Midleton’s response was a goal by K Deady followed by a Kieran Maloney point. Then Aghada scored 3 points from play by John Looney to a point from Midleton's Deady. With a scramble in front of goal, James Cashman whipped in a good goal. However Midleton replied immediately with a Josh Deady goal. By the half time whistle it was level 1-6 to Midleton's 2-3.
The first ten minutes of the second half saw Middleton's two Deadys and Lochlin McCarthy score 1-3 without reply. A Daniel Creedon point was followed by a K Maloney point. Aghada then exerted pressure and with Josh bearing down on goal saw the Midleton goalie Glen Harty make a great save to convert it to a point. Points by John Looney & Jake in the 20th minute was Aghada's best period with end to end hurling. However, in the 25th minute another goal by Midleton from full forward Rory Morrison was a dampener to Aghada's comeback. The green & white fought to the end, but, the magpies dominance in the half back line and ease of scoring goals was the difference. Another Midleton goal at the full-time whistle did not reflect how close these two teams were throughout this very entertaining and exciting encounter.

Something dawned in our lads that they were in a game and started to perform. Points from John Looney,Daniel Creedon,Stephen Murphy, Jake o Donoghue and a superb goal by Jake with his new Liam Walsh just before half time settled us for the second half with a score line of Aghada 1-5 Fr o Neills 1-3.Fergal gave his half time chat and the lads all fired up for second half.But Fr o Neills got the next 2 points and brought the game level. A positional change saw Mark Healy go centerback and Aaron Stafford midfield. Aaron came into his own and drove the team on. The badly missed Sean O Leary hit the Fr o Neills net twice. James Cashman ,John Looney also found the net.This was a great second half performance.Man of the match goes to Murfs Andrew and Stephen they both were unreal covered every blade off grass.There is still a few places up for grabs in this team so its back training sun morning 10am.

Sun 11th April U14 Feile Hurling
Aghada 2-11 Charleville 3-11

This third round of Féile Iomáint brought a strong north cork team to the shores of Rostellan on a sunny Sunday afternoon, April 11th.This match that was competitive and pulsating from start to finish and brave Aghada under 14's bowed out of Féile, but if luck had gone their way, they could have easily won it!
Niall Barrett was the referee in charge and he brought experience and allowed the game to ebb & flow in the tradition that Féile should be played.
At half time it was evens 1-7 a piece. The first half was getting to know each other. This Charleville side was stronger down the middle and it would take an almighty effort to overcome them.
The second half saw the visitors go 5 points in front on the 20th minute. The defining moments was in the 21st and 22nd minute respectively, when two potential goal chances deprived Aghada to go in front. The first was a great catch by Jack Farmer just outside the square to lash the ball off the post and the second was a point-blank save by Charleville goalie after a rasper of a strike from John Looney, as a result, the Charleville goalie was injured and had to be replaced. In the 3rd minute of injury time Aghada had a 20 metre free to level it, but, it was not to be and this highly determined, highly skilled hurling team bowed out of Féile.
The man of the match was again Aaron Stafford, he covered mid-field ,back line and his personal contribution of 1-3 as a centre half-back was commendable.
This team in general has great players with good hurling skills and are a team of the future. Manager Fergal Condon brought in all the established Aghada hurling players to egg on the team and he will surely need them again before the year is out with this set of players. He now takes them to the East cork league, next Wed 14th against Carrigtwohill, at home.
Team-Mathew Stafford, Shane Crowley, Shane Dorney, Mark Wall, Michael Leahy, Aaron Stafford(1-3),Andrew Murphy, Stephen Murphy, Mark Healy(0-1), Daniel Creedon, Jake O’Donoghue (0-2),John Looney (0-5),Jack Farmer, Cian Savage, Kevin O'Hanlon(1-0).
