Ardglass GAC Notes

Games Update ACFL Div 3 Ardglass 3-12 Glenn 3-8 Ardglass secured two points at home to Glenn on Saturday afternoon after staging a dramatic comeback. Ardglass found themselves 9 points down in the opening ten minutes after conceding three early goals, however they showed great determination to claw their way back into the game. Liam Mullan scored 2 goals, the first from a penalty and the second after an astonishing 80 yard solo through the Glenn defence writes Paul O’Shea. Owen Curran scored a third goal and a succession of points from Chris Deegan and Christian O‘Connor left Ardglass going into the half time break 3-7 to 3-2 in front. The second half saw an improved defensive display with the introduction of David Kearney and Philly Gill, both of whom had missed the majority of the season to injury and work commitments. Their return added extra strength and pace to the defence and nullified the Glenn danger men.
