Munster Vocational Schools Semi Final

Unlucky Hazelwood bow out at semi-final stage of the Munster Vocational Schools Championship

Causeway CS (Kerry) 4-7
Hazelwood College (Limerick) 1-11

Causeway opened the scoring in this Munster Semi- final, played in Tournafulla with a fine score from their corner forward. Hazelwood responded well with three unanswered scores with 1-1 from David O Donell and a well taken free from Jerry Lane. Causeway and Hazelwood each scored points before Causeway enjoyed a purple-patch with 2 points and a goal without reply leaving the score at 1-4 to 1-3 in favour of Causeway. Cian Mulcahy then got a fine score from the right wing after a strong solo-run to tie the game twenty minutes into the first half. Causeway finished the half the stronger side as Hazelwood tired playing into a strong breeze with 1-1 without reply to leave the score at the interval to 2-5 to 1-4. Causeway and Hazelwood traded scores for the opening 15 minutes of the second half, Hazelwood scoring 2 points and causeway landing 1-2 to leave the scores at 3 -7 to 1 -7. Now six points down Hazelwood threw everything into attack scoring three unanswered points two coming from jerry lane and the other from Eric o Connor. With three minutes to go, however, Hazelwood got caught out at the back and conceded a goal which effectively killed the game, though they did score one more point before the final whistle. The Kerry side now progress into the Munster final, where they face Nenagh who emerged through the back door after suffering defeat to Hazelwood in the opening round. Hazelwood will play Kilmallock on Friday next in the Limerick “B” schools final, no venue was confirmed at the time of writing.
