The second quarter began with a strong break from South Antrim which was swiftly dealt with by our strong defence and cleared wide by Hannah McMorris👀 South Antrim tried again but were unsuccessful ❌ gaining a chance through a free outside the D but this didn’t seem to shake our defence as they stood firm🦾 and Kara Bates pushed the ball back up the pitch🏑 to Molly White on the right hand side who gave a weighted pass to Katie Marshall who then successfully broke into the D but despite priors chances no goal resulted😥 . Antrim made another break though but was cut off quickly by Kara Young 🥊 who bolted from the left to the right hand side denying them entry into our circle. ⛔The second quarter ended prior remaining 2-0 up.🏑🦾
