Paddy Mollaghan on the ball for Killashee in this tussle with Connolly's opponent John Doris Photo Syl Healy
A stoppage time Daniel Reynolds point earned Sean Connolly’s a draw in the Intermediate Football Championship Round 1 game against St Brigid’s Killashee at Michael Fay Park on Sunday last.
Sean Connolly’s . . . 0-12 St Brigid’s Killashee . . . 1-9
It was a positive start for the Ballinalee boys in their fierce desire to finally win the Gerry Hennessy Cup, considering the most notable absence of county midfielder Daire Duggan.
Connolly's substitutes Evan Tully and Eugene Murtagh combined in the build up for a stoppage time Daniel Reynolds equaliser to save their side from a disappointing defeat.
