UNDER 13's BEAT ENNISCORTHY IN S.E.L. 33-12

With the Seapoint debacle behind us it was back to the South East League against our old foes Enniscorthy, the management were wary as the last confrontation had been a narrow 5-7 victory back in December, and so it proved. Wexford were nervous and squandered a number of chances before a cross field kick from Matt Doyle sent Jack Stafford over in the corner.
Enniscorthy stepped up a gear and made a number of half breaks and they scored a great try just before half time .Score at the break, Wexford 5 Enniscorthy 5.
Bill Quaid came on for the injured Ciaran Joyce and this lead to a better scrum platform.Then Enniscorthy intercepted and after a number of phases took the lead with a converted try.
This was the spur Wexford needed. Martin Whelan, Matt Doyle, Kevin Mahoney, Joe O'Connor and Daire MacCormack were to the fore.Wave after wave of pressure got them up to the 22 and Joe O'Connor broke the gain line and scored under the posts.Almost immediately Jack Stafford kicked cross field for winger Kevin Mahoney to score under the posts ,both were converted.
Wexford were rampant now and Joe O'Connor and Daire MacCormack added further tries .Final score Wexford 33 Enniscorthy 12.This was a hard faught game and the scoreline does flatter to some extent.
