Galway v Westmeath: Liberty Insurance All-Ireland Intermediate Camogie Championship
Croke Park, Dublin.
Westmeath 1-11 Galway 1-09
RTE.ie: Westmeath come good in the second half to claim first All-Ireland intermediate title
Pamela Greville shot nine points, three of them from play, while Laura Doherty and Amy Scally led an astounding second-half defensive effort that kept Galway to one injury-time minor, as Westmeath over turned a seven-point interval deficit to annex the Liberty Insurance All-Ireland Intermediate Camogie Championship.
The Lakesiders secured Senior status for the first time in their history just two years after winning the Premier Junior decider and it was 36-year-old Greville who was at the core of their outstanding achievement.
She was well supported in attack by the industrious Megan Dowdall and team captain Mairéad McCormack, whose 41st minute goal swung the tie in her side’s direction.
