Inter hurlers go down narrowly to Whithall
IHC St Sylvesters 1-3 Whitehall Colmcille 0-10 Bit of a Jekyll and Hyde display by our lads. Defensively we were excellent all through, holding a handy looking Whitehall forward division to about 5 points from play and superbly supported by Anthony Dunne making two great saves in goal. We played into the wind in the first half and trailing 0-6 to 0-2 at the break seemed in a good position.
Although we dominated the second half, the half back line of Dara Flaherty, Martin Casey and Alan Morris with midfiled Enda and Russy Cleere completely dominating but we could hardly buy a point up front, missing many frees and other chances. Russy Cleere did carry through for a gioal but other than that we didn't break them down,
Disappointing loss in a game we needed to win and really could have. Whether or not we were the better team is debatable, however.
