CLUB LOTTO
There was no winner of last weeks Club Lotto. The numbers drawn were 1, 6, 18, 28 and the bonus number was 3. Next week’s Jackpot prize will be €15,200 so make sure to get a ticket from the usual promotors. Tickets only €2 available from the bar http://www.oloughlingaels.gaa.ie/lotto
SENIOR HURLING LEAGUE
Round 2 of the St. Canices Senior Hurling League saw O’Loughlin Gaels take on Mullinavat. It was a tough encounter that never saw our lads really fire on all cylinders and although they worked hard to earn the draw after going into the break 4 points down, it was really one that got away considering O’Loughlins had turned that deficit into a 4 point lead with just 3 minutes to play. A good test that saw good work by a few players working to get on this team. A few have laid down a marker over these first couple of games and competition for places will certainly be hotting up. A good place for any selector to be in. Next up is Carrickshock on May 20th in Bennettsbridge. That is one to look forward to

JUNIOR HURLING LEAGUE
Dicksboro 2-20 to 1-20 O'Loughlin Gaels Disappointingly no points bagged from this entertaining junior hurling league fixture in Palmerstown this evening. A decent crowd saw O'Loughlins start well and began the 2nd half 3 points clear. The sides traded scores in the opening moments of the half and a fine goal by the 'boro on the 8th minute put them ahead by 1 for the first time. O'Loughlins returned the next 2 points to claim back the lead but the green flag was raised again for the ‘Boro men when goalkeeper Paddy Delaney was deemed to have stepped behind the line after fielding a high ball. O'Loughlin fought back and benefitted from a fortuitous goal of their own on the 50th minute when an Alan Geoghegan long distance effort bounced straight to the net putting the lads 1 point ahead. 1-18 to 2:14. For the remaining 8 minutes it was all Dicksboro and they returned 6 points to the visitors 2 to see out this game. It was a good effort from the lads and a stern test that will serve them well going forward.
