Drumragh senior men are into the last four of the Connollys Of Moy Tyrone Junior Championship after a one-point win over Glenelly at Killyclogher on Sunday afternoon.

Malachy McManus hit the late winning point for a Drumragh side who battled back well from a two-point deficit with 10 minutes to go.

Ronan Maguire and Shane Cleary were on target in the opening stages to give Drumragh an early lead. Glenelly fought back to draw level, and the sides swapped points with Shane Devine kicking a good score for Drumragh.

Further points from Tommy Murphy, Kian Murphy and Shane Cleary gave Drumragh a two-point lead at half-time.

The sides went score for score at the beginning of the second half with Shane Cleary hitting two points, including a brilliant effort from out near the left sideline.

Glenelly then took control of the game and three points in-a-row gave them a two-point lead.

But Drumragh finished the game on the front foot. Substitute Niall McCarney scored two greats points from play to bring the teams level again, before Malachy McManus’s late winner put Drumragh into the semi-finals.
