A significant win for Mullingar Shamrocks ACL Div. 2 team as it secures our place in the division for next season's ACL after leading by 1-6 to 0-8 at the interval.. A first-half goal from Gavin Pierce and a penalty converted late in the second half by Ryan Kelly secured what was a great team victory helped by the control of the middle third exchanges by midfielders Darragh Daly and Donnacha Maguire with Alan Cashman dropping deep to lend support. In a day that conditions were far from ideal for football 2-15 was a great return in which several players contributed to the total led by Trevor Keena who hit 0-5.
