Carndonagh are much too strong for Pettigo in Junior Championship

Carndonagh made the long journey to Pettigo on Sunday a very profitable one with an easy victory over the locals, who were playing in the higher championship after their victory last year.

But the higher level proved a step too far for Pettigo, who trailed by 0-12 to 0-3 at the break.

It was very much  one-way traffic in the second half as Carndonagh, although missing their county star Conor O’Donnell, found the net four times.
