Skye Camanachd Saturday Shinty Shorts | |
22 April 2017 The Skye Camanachd first, second team and ladies teams were all scheduled to be in action on Saturday 22 April 2017. The Skye Camanachd first team are through to the Balliemore Cup quarter finals after they came from a goal down to beat Strathglass 3-1 at Pairc nan Laoch. There were chances at both ends before Josh Fraser gave Strathglass a 33 minute lead. Will Cowie burst through the centre of the Strathglass defence to equalise just a couple of minutes later. When Stewart Grant was brought down inside the D just after the restart, Will Cowie scored from the spot to make it 2-1. Cowie completed his hat-trick on 56 minutes and Skye will now host Fort William in the next round. The Skye Camanachd second team beat the Glenurquhart second team 3-2 in their Marine Harvest North Division 1 encounter at Blairbeg. Connor Gilpin and Ross Gordon had Skye 2-0 ahead but Calum Miller and a David MacLennan penalty drew the sides level. However a second goal from Ross Gordon on 65 minutes gave Skye both points. The Skye Camanachd Ladies were given a walk-over into the Marine Harvest Valerie Fraser Cup semi-finals tie when Glasgow Mid Argyll Ladies were unable to field a side for their last-eight tie at Pairc nan Laoch, Portree. |
