Seniors - The seniors qualified for the league semi-finals when they defeated Magheracloone 1-12 to 0-11 in a low key contest last Sunday. In a game where both teams fielded short of several regulars it was a strong first half showing that sealed the points for Blayney. An early goal from Aidan Ward allied with some excellent point taking from Keith Hill in particular saw them lead by nine points at the interval. Magheracloone introduced some of their more established players in the second half and gradually whittled Blayneys lead down to two points as the game entered its final ten minutes but two more Hill points sealed a Blayney victory.

Team: P McNally, , J Mc Hugh, C Brady, S McGeough, P Treanor, C Hughes K. Duffy, G Ward, D Mc Ardle, A Irwin, M Mc Elroy, M Mc Mahon, C Hanratty, A Ward, K Hill.
