Cavan Ladies Footballers End Westmeath's Short Stint in All-Ireland Senior Championship

Cavan finished the stronger in this game at Pearse Park in Longford.

Cavan's ladies footballers finished strong yesterday to relegate Westmeath to the All-Ireland Intermediate Championship.

After defeats to Galway and Kerry in the group stages, Westmeath needed a win in this Senior relegation play-off to stay up after only winning the Intermediate championship last year.

Westmeath led for much of the game with Sarah Dillon scoring 1-6, but Cavan surged late in the game to win 1-13 to 1-9.
