County Senior Hurling League
De La Salle 3-20 Lismore 1-24
Our understrength senior hurlers had a narrow win over Lismore in an entertaining league encounter played in Gracedieu last Saturday evening. The game was notable for the welcome return to competitive action of Paidi Nevin after a thirteen months absence with a cruciate knee injury and fittingly it was Paidi’s late goal that won the game for us.
