KERRY SHC FINAL Kilmoley 1-19 St Brendan's 2-8:KILMOYLEY MADE it six titles this decade – and moved top the county championship honours list as they moved one ahead of Ballyduff, winning their 22nd county senior title – with a power-packed display of fast and slick hurling that proved too much for a disappointing Ardfert side at Austin Stack Park yesterday.
Approaching the interval, Kilmoyley led 0-9 to 0-6 and then came the crucial score in the 29th minute when Seán Maunsell and Billy Brick set up Shaun Young who doubled to the St Brendan’s net, giving the champions a 1-9 to 0-6 interval lead.
Kilmoyley assumed complete control in the second half, with the outstanding Shane Brick finishing with nine points.
