The sharp finishing of Séamus Casey ensured the local bragging rights were claimed by Oylegate-Glenbrien when they overcame neighbours Crossabeg-Ballymurn in Group A of the Pettitt's Senior hurling championship in Samaritans St. Patrick's Park, Enniscorthy on Friday.
The county attacker set out his stall by picking off 1-1 inside 75 seconds, and another goal in the 43rd minute kick-started the process whereby the boys in blue steadily pulled away from their 14-man rivals as the last quarter progressed.

United Striders pair embrace challenge at National Senior Championships

Wexford People Today at 04:30 United Striders AC were proud to see two of their youngest stars, Joss O'Connor and Max Murphy, make their National Senior Championship debuts in the 800m in Morton Stadium. Competing against some of Ireland's finest athletes – including Olympian Mark English – both runners embraced the challenge of racing at national senior level. In the second heat, Joss placed eighth in 1:56.39, with victory going to UCD's Cian McPhillips. In the third heat, Max produced a superb personal best of 1:54.72 to take fifth place, in a race won by Andrew Thompson of North Belfast Harriers. Mark English took the win in the opening heat. Remarkably, both Joss and Max are still Under-18 athletes, making their performances all the more impressive. The club looks forward to seeing them build on this experience in future senior competitions. Meanwhile, Sinéad Donovan made her mark at the National Masters track and field championships in Tullamore. Competing in the Over-45 category, she claimed gold in the weight for distance throw, silver in her first-ever hammer throw, and bronze in the shot putt.
