A scoring burst in the opening minutes of each half from Lucy Boyd put Loreto Kilkenny in the ascendancy in Gortnahoe yesterday afternoon and on their way to retain the Allianz Corn Sceilge All-Ireland senior camogie title at the expense of Ursuline Thurles whom they also defeated in the 2024 final. – PICTURES BELOW
It was Loreto’s fourth successive crown and 11th since their first 16 years ago. They were good value for their victory with their defence shutting out the threat posed by Tipperary senior player Caoimhe Stakelum and Alice Butler. The Doheny twins commanded the midfield battle particularly in the first half, while Boyd, Holly Ryan and Shauna Mahoney created problems throughout for the under pressure Thurles defence.- FULL MATCH SUMMARY HERE
