Rosemount Club Notes

June 10, 2019

Gaa: Our final game in this years ACFL Div 1 campaign took place last Sunday morning away to Mullingar Shamrocks. With heavy rain before the match making conditions sloppy , both teams adapted well and served up an entertaining encounter over the hour. Mullingar started the brightest and took a two point lead. Our lads responded well with good scores from Deccie Mullen & David Tone. Two goals then followed, Firstly Donal O’Donoghue fisted the ball to the net for Mullingar half way through the first half. Shane Tone then drove up the field to finish a fine move to the net leaving it all square at half time at 1.05 apiece. A cagey second half followed which both sides trading points. It was obvious that this game would go down to the wire and that it did. Deccie Mullen kicked three frees for us , but Mullingar kept themselves in the game with some scores from frees themselves. As the game entered the final few minutes, both sides were going for the win. David Tone stepped to kick a fine point from play off his left foot, and one final free from Deccie Mullen got us over the line. The final score was Rosemount 1.10, to Mullingar’s 1.09. Well done lads on a good win. We now have the league final to look forward to vs Garrycastle, details to be confirmed at a later date. 

Well done to Eoin, Boidu, Theo, Sean & the Westmeath Senior Footballers who defeated  Waterford last weekend in the qualifiers.
