Kilshannig got their first Division 1 Football League win of the campaign with a deserved victory over Killavullen in Killavullen on Thursday last, St.Patrick's Day. Following an opening round draw with Buttevant and a defeat to Buttevant, Kilshannig made no mistake at the third attempt with a hard working away victory. The opening half was an even contest with the home side leading 0-4 to 0-3 after ten minutes, John Quinn and the lively Jack Kearney keeping Kilshannig in touch. Kilshannig though would move into the lead by the half time break with three consecutive points edging them 0-6 to 0-4 in front. Kilshannig moved further ahead after the interval and while they began to dominate there was just two between the sides entering the final quarter, 0-8 to 0-6. However, with Roddy O'Mahony, Pa Cronin and Tadhg O'Sullivan impressing around midfield, Kilshannig managed to extend their advantage. O'Sullivan, Cronin and Dylan O'Callaghan all had points late on before Kearney completed a fine performance with a well taken goal five minutes from time.
