Lots Of Prizes For The Ladies
A fantastic evening of racing was held in Ballynoe on Thursday evening. Organised by St Catherine's AC It was classic road racing with only one thousand of a second between first and second. The camera showed Conor McCauley beating Tony Forrestal but the chip time had Tony ahead by one thousand of a second. Likewise for the team prize both Leevale AC and East Cork AC were on 21 points but Leevale AC won on the countback.
Midleton AC were not to be outdone with Katie Hennessy once again taking 1st Jnr F and then our master Ladies excelled themselves with Brigid Ryan 1st O/50, Christine Murphy 1st O/55 and Catriona McGregor 1st O/60.
Our first man home was Conor Cronin with another great run coming home sub 20 on a tough hilly course and our first female was Katie Hennessy. Well done all who ran and supported .
