UNDER 13 BOYS WHITE: Laune Rangers White Team enjoyed a great win on the road when they emerged 5-10 to 3-8 winners against Keel/Listry.  Despite some late withdrawals, which necessitated positional switches, Rangers got off to a flying start, with Odhran Clifford driving  through from centre forward to score a fine goal, followed by points from Jaego Ferris, Tommy Foley and Jack Buckley. Keel/Listry had a number of chances and Rangers had Fionan Quigg in goals to thank following a great save before Keel opened their account with a pointed free. Rangers hit back with 2 more points from Tommy Foley and Odhran Clifford before another pointed free for Keel/Listry. Tommy Foley then struck for a goal, with Keel/Listry replying with yet another pointed free. Liam O’Shea closed the Ranger’s scoring with a fine point, and Keel finished out with a brace of points.  Half Time Score:- Keel/Listry 0-5, Laune Rangers White 2-6.  Laune Rangers started the second half much like the first with James Kearney striking for a well taken goal.  However, Keel/Listry struck back, scoring 1-3 without  reply before Oisin Clifford scored a fine goal to steady the ship. Keel/Listry upped the pressure by scoring another goal, before Tommy Foley scored a scorcher of a goal, to keep the Rangers moving. At the other end, Luke Cleary made a vital block on a Keel/Listry shot on goal and Keel/Listry eventually had to settle for a point. Rangers then scored 3 points without reply through Liam O’Shea, James Kearney and Odhran Clifford. Keel/Listry got a final goal, but this was cancelled out by a fine goal by Tommy Foley to complete his hat-trick and end the scoring.  Full Time Score:- Keel/Listry 3-8, Laune Rangers White 5-10  The performance was the most cohesive of the campaign and was fully deserved given all the hard work at training. While those on the scoresheet again take the plaudits, all players were excellent, particularly Fionan Quigg in goals, Mikey Dwyer, Luke Cleary and The Kearney Bros James and Sean at the back, and Luke McGillycuddy in mid- field, with all players working hard on and off the ball.
