Enniscorthy edged by battling Bangor
\nIn contrast to last week, the weather and pitch conditions at Upritchard Park were good. However, Bangor\u2019s preparations got off to a bad start when centre Mike Aspley aggravated an injury in the pre-match warm-up and was unable to play. A quick re-shuffle saw Chris Morgan come in from full back as his replacement, and Adam McCusker taking up the full back role. For Enniscorthy\u2019s part, they came to this fixture on the back of a good run of results in the Leinster League Division 1A, and sitting in second place in that table.<\/p>\n
A mistake by Bangor right from the referee\u2019s whistle at kick-off looked to have handed the visitors an opportunity to take the initiative. However, having won the ball back, McCusker put a superb kick deep into the Enniscorthy twenty two that left the defence no option but to put it into touch. The Bangor line-out was taken cleanly by Curtis Stewart, and a maul was formed that surged towards the Enniscorthy line before Jamie Clegg dropped with the ball and scored the game\u2019s first try after just 4 minutes. Mark Widdowson made the conversion, and the score was 7-0………. see more at :- http:\/\/www.pitchero.com\/clubs\/bangorrfc\/s\/match-centre-35649\/0-2758687<\/a><\/p>\n
