STARS ON THE RISE

WINDMILL turned the screw to climb to second in Intermediate A on a blustery afternoon of domestic action.

Stars comfortably got the better of Ballymacash

Rangers by four goals to nil in their 10th win of the league campaign.

Mccabe, Mcmahon, Grant (circled) and Mckevitt got themselves on the scoresheet for the Newry men to close to within three points of leaders Hanover. And Windmill will know their title ambitions are in for a serious examination this coming Saturday when Crewe United roll into town.

Elsewhere, Valley Rangers will look to build on their 3-0 weekend win at Richhill AFC when they host Hanover. St Mary’s, who beat Fivemiletown 2-1, next host AFC Silverwood, while Tandragee, who drew with Bourneview Mill, are again at home with Moneyslane the visitors.

Banbridge Rangers’ return to Intermediate A is at home to Laurelvale while Richhill go to Fivemiletown.
