There were tears and broken hearts at The Ragg on Monday when a spirited Nenagh \u00c9ire \u00d3g team lost the county under-14A Camogie final to Newport. The Blues gave it their all in an enthralling contest and lost nothing in defeat. Indeed, the girls were a credit to everyone associated with the team.<\/p>\n

Entering the game as underdogs Nenagh \u00c9ire \u00d3g begun in determined fashion and set the tone when Caroline Brown set up Maeve Hassett for a rousing hand-passed goal as early as the fifth minute.<\/p>\n

The Newport goalkeeper made a fine save to deny Maeve Hassett a second goal in the ninth minute before Becky McGrath fired over a great point in the tenth – 1-1 to no-score.<\/p>\n

On the counter-attack Newport scored a goal of their own in the 12th minute, but \u00c9ire \u00d3g pressed forward with the Newport \u2018keeper pulling off a series of fine saves to deny Caroline Brown and Maeve Hassett in the closing minutes of the first half.<\/p>\n

Nenagh \u00c9ire \u00d3g led 1-1 to 1-0 at the break.<\/p>\n

Six minutes into the second half a Newport free leveled it up before Ella Carey pulled off a stunning save in the tenth minute to deny Newport a certain goal.<\/p>\n

Two points forced Newport two clear with ten minutes to play. Ella Carey saved once more in the 16th minute of the second half, but the Nenagh \u2018keeper was beaten a minute later and Newport now led 2-3 to 1-1.<\/p>\n

Nenagh \u00c9ire \u00d3g poured forward in search of scores and were rewarded for their determination in the first minute of injury time when Caroline Brown buried Maeve Hassett\u2019s clever cross – 2-1 to 2-3.<\/p>\n

The Blues pressed hard for another goal, but Newport struck for a third three-pointer on the counter-attack and were crowned county champions.<\/p>\n
