Spa travelled to Connolly Park, Tralee on Saturday evening in the penultimate round of the county league.

Michael Foley, Mike O'Donoghue (2) and Cian Tobin exchanged points with Dylan Casey, Darragh O'Brien and Fiachna Mangan (2) to level the game at 0-4 each at the end of the first quarter. Kieran Donaghy and Darragh O'Brien edged the home side in front before Cian Tobin replied for Spa, and Niall McCarthy almost rattled the net, but keeper Robbie Murphy did well to block the shot. Points from Greg Horan, Sean Quilter (2), Michael O'Gara and Darragh Brien extended the Stacks advantage and right on half time Cian Tobin closed in on goal but his goal shot went just inches wide. At the break, Austin Stacks led 0-11 to 0-5.

Stacks increased their lead with points from Sean Quilter (2) and Joe O'Connor but Spa responded with two goals in two minutes, Mikey Moynihan and Cormac Cronin the goal scorers to make it 2-6 to 0-14. Stacks however replied with three quick points from Kieran Donaghy, Shane Carroll and Sean Quilter before Shane Lynch kicked Spa's final score to make it 2-6 to 0-17 with ten minutes left. Points from Shane Carroll and Ferdia O'Brien finished the game at 2-6 to 0-19.
