Schoolboys Section:

valiantly to the end. Best performers on the day were Dylan Wenger and Michael O’Connell.

Macroom hosted Mallow and won 3-2 AET. After a scoreless first half, Mallow went ahead with two quick goals in three minutes.

The home side responded with an outstanding Aaron O’Donovan strike. The tie was level went Eoin Guiney and Dylan Twomey combined for O’Donovan to score his second. Macroom were the better side in extra time and with time almost up Denis Dullea found Jack Kelleher who notched the winner.

This win propelled Macroom to the semi-final of the competition where they travelled to take on Premier League leaders Greenwood. The first half was closely fought but the higher ranked city side were much too strong in the second period. Macroom battled bravely but will have no complaints with the eventual defeat. Despite the result great credit is due to the team who once again defied the odds to make the last four.
