The Bouncers found late scores to ensure a draw with Blackrock in the Bon Secours Limerick SHC this Saturday evening. In Kilmallock, it finished Blackrock 0-17 Garryspillane 1-14.
In this tough, tight south Limerick derby, the sides were level twice in the early minutes but then Blackrock led from the seventh minute until Garryspillane levelled in injury time.
Blackrock had nine different scorers across a fine display, while Garryspillane had just four on the scoresheet. Paudie Leahy was top scorer for Blackrock with 0-7 (4frees),
while Dylan O’Shea had 0-8 (6frees) for Garryspillane. The Bouncers kept on the coat tails of Blackrock and got level in the end – thanks to a goal in the final minutes from Kieran Hickey
It was 0-11 to 0-7 to Blackrock at half time. Dylan O’Shea had four of the seven Garryspillane scores in the half from frees. On the change of ends, Eoin Sheehan came to life for
Garryspillane with 0-3 from play in the second half. While Garryspillane looked a sharper outfit in the second half Blackrock continued to set the tempo and were 0-16 to 0-12 ahead inside the final 10-minutes. Despite losing James Ryan to injury, Garryspillane found the vital scores and the Hickey goal left one point between the teams. Back came Blackrock with a point, but in injury time O’Shea (free) and Sheehan hit points to secure a draw.
Garryspillane play Ballybrown in that final group game in the LIT Gaelic Grounds next Friday. Defeat for Garryspillane would mean scoring difference determining if The Bouncers or
Blackrock play in the relegation final against Monaleen, South Liberties or Murroe-Boher to drop down to the Premier IHC.
