Meath win camogie opener

Two goals apiece from Aoife Maguire and Jane Dolan and one from Kristina Troy helped Meath to a 5-12 to 2-3 first round National camogie League Div 2 victory against Westmeath at Bray yesterday.

Meath were ahead by five points (2-5 to 1-3) at the interval at the Wicklow venue that was nominated by Croke Park to host the game.

Meath will play Cork in the second round next Sunday, subject to Cork having a team after they were unable to play at the weekend due to an issue with regrading some players.

Cork were scheduled to play Antrim at the weekend but conceded a walkover.
