Kilmacabea’s unbeaten run in the league appeared to count for very little as half time approached in their first round Junior A football championship game against St Mary’s in Dunmanway on Saturday evening last 23rd April. With just one point in the fourteenth minute to St Mary’s six, Kilmacs appeared to be in deep trouble. However three well worked points in as many minutes had them back in the game by the short whistle. Turning over to face the breeze and the strong evening sun they kept up the good work and were a point ahead when Joe Collins rattled the net from some distance. St. Mary’s, 2009 champions, refused to surrender and had the lead reduced to a single point with time running out but Kilmacs finished the second half like the first landing some good points to ease into the third round on a score of 1 – 11 to 0 – 9. Despite facing the losers round the men from the twin villages could yet figure in the shake up for the Mick McCarthy Cup.
