Our U13 hurlers hosted Colt Shanahoe in a great battle in McCann Park on Saturday afternoon.

Portarlington dominated much of the first half but Colt lead by 2 points at the break.

Port came out onto the field for the second half with much more fight and determination in them. They scored 1-04 without reply and took a three point lead with only three minutes left to play. Colt won a free near the end and managed to scramble a goal out of it which levelled the match at 1-06 a piece.

This was a gutsy performance from the lads with our defence doing great in clearing ball. Our forwards got some well taken scores from lovely set plays worked out by our defence.
