CO. JUNIOR HURLING CHAMPIONSHIP A good win for our Junior hurlers on Sunday in the County Junior Championship Semi Final against a strong Duagh side puts us into a County Final. 

This was a home game for us and after a slow start we steadily caught up with the opposition and a fine first half goal by Richie Farrissey put us ahead of Duagh and we maintained our advantage to the end. A fortunate second half goal came our way from a long range free by Mike McCarthy into the goalmouth and was dropped over his line by the goalkeeper. This score put us in a commanding position and despite a rough and tumble fourth quarter we finished the game comfortably on a scoreline of Crokes 2.14, Duagh 0.13 

We await the CCC scheduling of the Final and it will be played against Causeway C possibly on next weekend.
