Veteran attacker Louise Ní Mhuircheartaigh also helped herself to an impressive haul of 0-6 on a day when the Kingdom collected the Brendan Martin Cup for the 12th time in their history. Earlier on, Leitrim survived a late Tyrone fightback to win the TG4 All-Ireland Intermediate Football Championship for the first time since they captured their only crown in 2007. O’Dowd and Guckian (free) kicked over points as Leitrim went in at the break two points ahead by 2-5 to 2-2. After 18 minutes without a score Tyrone substitute Sorcha Gormley hit a neat point in the 39th minute. Horisk followed up with a point but Leitrim cancelled those scores with excellent points from Guickian and Clancy.
