Division 3

Camolin Celtic kept their outside chance of claiming the title alive with a 3-1 win over Shamrock Rovers in Peter Quinn Park on Sunday.

A Des Wolohan double, either side of a Daryl Murphy goal, had the visitors 3-0 ahead just after the hour mark and, although Lee Morrissey pulled a goal back late on, it was mere consolation.

Oylegate United ran out comfortable 5-0 winners over Duncannon on Sunday. Jamie Ronan was the star of the show, helping himself to four goals, while Pierce Murphy added to their tally.

St. Leonards ended their campaign with a 4-3 win over Enniscorthy Town in Pearse Park. Conor Burke, Ben Whitty, Neil Gallagher and Adam Ryan scored for the visitors, with Joe Hyland, Dylan Doran and Jonathan Whelan replying.

Oylegate United and St. Leonards came away with a point apiece after a 3-3 draw on Wednesday evening.

St. Leonards got off to a lightning start, with Conor Burke opening their account in the first minute, and Neil Gallagher doubled their advantage just six minutes later.

Shane Doran pulled one back in the 56th minute, and Jamie Ronan levelled matters with 20 minutes remaining.

Leonards weren’t finished yet though, and Matty Flynn made it 3-2 in the 76th minute, but Lee Kehoe rescued a point when he hit the back of the net with three minutes of normal time remaining.

Taghmon saw off Moyne Rangers 4-2 in Billy Browne Park on the same night. Brandon Power fired the visitors in front, but goals from Kamil Kutiewicz and Conor Ronan gave the Enniscorthy outfit a 2-1 advantage at the break. Power added two more goals shortly after the interval to complete his hat-trick, and Ryan Cashin sealed the deal just after the hour mark.

Division 3A

A Seán Cooney hat-trick earned Glynn Barntown a 3-2 win over Fethard Rangers on Thursday evening. Jean-Luc Tubritt and Graham O’Grady hit the back of the net for Fethard.

Fethard picked up three points on Sunday when they saw off Courtown Hibs 2-1.

James Byrne fired Hibs in front after 15 minutes, but Kevin Rowe drew the hosts level three minutes later and Paul Foley grabbed the winner shortly before the interval.
