Gortin was the venue for the Championship encounter between Cappagh and Kildress on Thursday evening. The game was played in glorious conditions and it was the Cappagh girls who rose to the occasion and provided some great football.
The ladies in blue played well all over the field, they built from the back with some inspirational play in defence from full back Naomi McAnulla. The dynamic duo of Grainne McGread and Tracy Wallace in mid-field made darting runs forward and caused the Kildress defense all sorts of trouble. Adding to that, there was a typical captains performance from centre half forward, Clodagh Poytnz, who finished the game as top scorer, with 2-4 to her name. Clodagh spearheaded the Cappagh attack which inspired the other forwards, including Teri McCusker, who on her senior championship debut finished the night with hall of 3 points.
Overall this was a great team performance, a performance from which the Cappagh girls excelled all over the pitch! We wish them the best of luck as they now move forward to the semi-final which will be played next weekend (date, time & venue to be confirmed).
