Match Report

TTA report

A draw would have been fairer and it looked likely until the last minute. Queens took the lead (18) but O'Donnell had a fine first half and scored twice (24 and 29). An equaliser came (58) and from then on it was end to end stuff until Queens scored (89) to gain their 1st points in the section.
