U13 match report for Division 2 championship final v Bruff on 27th September in Kilbreedy
On Thursday evening Garryspillane faced Bruff in the county u13B hurling final played in Martinstown. This was a keenly contested county final between the two south Limerick teams. The Bouncers had the better start and settled into the game with some great scores from team captain Jamie O Shea. Our half back line of Robbie Ryan, Bill Crawford and Fionn O Carroll were also prominent and gave a great supply of ball into the forwards where Jamie O Shea was a constant threat both from play and placed balls. Jamie was well supported in the half forward line by Cian Harty and Haulie Gallahue who got through a lot of work. Garryspillane had the better of the exchanges in the first half and took a healthy lead to the break Garryspillane 1.05 Bruff .01
On the resumption and aided by the wind Bruff got more into the game and started to eat into the Garryspillane lead taking some fine scores. They pushed hard for a goal or two but Ciaran Hyland in goal wasn’t going to be beaten easily, batting out a few balls that were being dropped in on top of him. When called upon his full back line Edward Moriarty, Paul Quane and Adam Tobin never faltered. The Bouncers regained control around the field with mid fielders Olan Ryan and Philip Ryan to the fore. Philip chipped in with a lovely point from play. Bruff to their credit carried the fight to Garryspillane to the end but the Garryspillane defence was heroic and kept bringing out the ball. The Bouncers found some breathing space with a welcome well taken point from play from full forward John Lees. Garryspillane worked hard to keep the pressure on Bruff with Paul Fenton and Cathal Maguire chasing down Bruff defenders. Garryspillane who on the night were that bit sharper around the field were value for their win. The two subs introduced in the second half Maurice Reynolds and Fergal Matthewson were industrious when introduced.
The Bouncers ran out winners on the night on a score of 1.07 to 5 points for Bruff. The final whistle was met with great scenes of celebration from supporters and parents. Denis Carroll presented the cup to Garryspillane captain Jamie O Shea. This was a great win for the club who only a week earlier beat Newcastlewest in the U15 hurling final.
