Wins For Laois And Offaly In Ladies Football Championship

Sunday, 23 May 2021 22:31

Westmeath came up short against Donegal.

A super display of shooting from Mo Nerney has sent Laois top of Division 3B of the Ladies National Football League.

She hit the Kildare defence for 1-8 including some crucial second half frees as the O'Moore women began their campaign with a 2-16 to 2-13 win over their neighbours.

Leah Tarpey claimed the other goal.

Two games remain for them against Longford and Wicklow starting next weekend.

Offaly were also in goalscoring form this afternoon and Grainne Egan was once again the star 24 hours on from her 3-5 for the Camogie team she struck 2-9 with the large ball.

Mairead Daly bagged the other goal on her inter-county return in a 3-16 to 1-16 win over Carlow.

They're also top of their section, Division 4B with one further round robin game to come against Limerick.
