ULSTER retained the M.
Donnelly Interprovincial Wheelchair Hurling League
title in convincing fashion after a successful day
in Boyle, Co Roscommon, where they won all three of
their games.
In the first game of the day Ulster played the host
province Connacht, displaying great hurling skills
to win with a final score of 3-0. Peter Lewis (2)
and Conor McGrotty (1) scored the goals.
The second game against Leinster produced a real
thriller. Ulster started very strongly acquiring a
3-1 lead. Leinster came back to level the game with
only a minute left on the clock. However Ulster
succeeded in holding onto their title by scoring the
winning goal in the dying seconds of the game. The
goal scorers were Peter Lewis (3) and Conn Nagle
(1).
With the All-Ireland title now secured, Ulster could
relax and enjoy the last game against Munster. They
finished victorious once more, winning the final
match of the day 4-2 with goals from Conn Nagle (3)
and Peter Lewis. |
