SHC B QF Setanta 0-14 St Sylvesters 2-07 Beaten by pretty much the last puck of the game but, in truth, the scoreline tells the real story of 14 scores to 9. A Martin Ormond goal mid first half and a Martin Casey one just before the break gave us a flattering 2-04 to 0-04 lead. We pointed on the restart but from there on it was pretty much all Setanta with the wind in their backs they picked off a steady, if slow, stream of points. Defensively we put up a great effort and Setanta only threatened our goal once when well handled to Anthony.
