LYIT Donegal got their season back on track with a solid win away to Fr Mathews in Cork on Saturday.

Fr Mathews 73 LYIT Donegal 84

In their first game after the Christmas break, the Donegal outfit eventually pulled away from a stubborn home side.

This was always going to be tough with a long drive to Cork to play second-placed Fr Mathews who are having an outstanding season.

LYIT were behind 46-43 at half-time but stuck to the task in hand and eventually got on top winning on a relatively comfortable scoreline of 84 points to 73 points.

A big shout out must go to Letterkenny Blaze U17 Killian Gribben (who joined his U17 team-mate Luke Cassidy) with 16 points and a double-double in his first senior game!

The LYIT scorers were: Dom Uhl 29, Killian Gribben 16, Manny Payton 16, Andy McGeever 10, Charlie McKinney 10, Luke Cassidy 3
