LEITRIM SFC FINAL/Glencar 0-10 St Mary's 0-6:BY WINNING their fourth title in a row, Glencar/Manorhamilton made club history against a St Mary's side seeking revenge for last years defeat at Páirc Seán Mhic Diarmada, Carrick-on-Shannon yesterday.
Although the champions dominated possession for large parts of the half, a succession of wides kept St Mary’s in the hunt but three Glencar/Manor points without reply in the final two minutes of the half gave them a deserved lead of 0-6 to 0-3 at the break.
St Mary’s added points from play by substitute Clement Cunniffe and Robert Lowe but the revival fizzled out. Glencar /Manor drew on years of experience to score four further points to a sole reply from Marys Niall Comerton.
