THE HIGH

POINT

Making the near-200 mile trip north to
Owenbeg to face Derry off the back of
a harrowing loss to Meath looked like
the definition of a fool’s errand for John
Sugrue’s men. The journey home was all
the sweeter for it, with Eoin Lowry’s late
goal helping Laois to a great win.

THE

LOW POINT

The 3-13 to 0-11 defeat to Meath

in the Leinster semi-final was right

up there with the 2017 hammering

by Kildare in terms of the low

points of Laois’ modern

history. Laois just never

got going that day back

in early June, with their

shooting in particular

hurting them.

LAOIS 0-12 WESTMEATH 0-10

LEINSTER SEMI-FINAL:

MEATH 3-13 LAOIS 0-11
