It's now three defeats in three games for the Lake County.
Westmeath Football Manager Dermot McCabe says he's proud of the attitude shown by his players, following their narrow one point defeat away to Cork.
A Chris Óg Jones hattrick proved to be decisive as the home team ran out 3-18 to 3-17 winners.
The result leaves the Lake County bottom of the table in division three, the only side yet to pick up a point.
McCabe is highlighting the midfield battle as an area his side struggled with at Pairc Ui Chaoimh.
