Junior Cup defeated by Hermitage

Ray Crotty’s Junior Cup team took to the course on Sunday to play Hermitage Golf Club. Hopes were high with a home draw meaning we had 3 matches at home and 2 away.

There was early change to the team when Chris Lawless had to withdraw from the team. This resulted in Milo Doyle changing from away to home and Brian Frawley replacing Milo away.

At the half way point things were looking good with both George O’Brien and Brian Frawley both ahead and Chris Boylan ahead at home. Diarmaid MacGabhann and Milo Doyle were in arrears at the turn but hopeful of a turn around on the back nine.

However nothing is certain in golf and while Chris and George both won their games well Hermitage proved too strong on the day and ran out 3-2 winners.

Results were as follows:

Home

Milo Doyle lost 2&1

Diarmaid MacGabhann lost 5&4

Chris Boylan won 3&1

Brian Frawley lost on 18

George O’Brien won 4&3

Commiserations to Ray and the whole panel. We are sure Ray will be planning for 2025 already.
