Senior Ladies Co League Div 2: Spa 1-6 Scartaglen 3-8

Our seniors played their last Co League game away to Scartaglen. We started very strong with Meghann Cronin opening the score sheet. Followed shortly by a well taken goal by Mags Cronin. However, Scart settled and took their points and narrowed the gap. The home side took the lead with a goal and first half was Spa 1-2 to Scartaglen 1-6. Second half, was pretty much similar to the first half but just couldn't narrow the scoreline.
