Thu, May 05, 2022
It was incredibly close at the end, but Galwegians men's 1st XV survived by the skin of their teeth to avoid relegation as they edged out Connacht rivals Ballina by an aggregate score of just three points on Saturday.
Wegians came into this away game with a 15-point advantage from the first leg last, but Ballina showed they were a serious threat. As the Blues made a nervous start, conceding three early penalties in the first five minutes, the home side took their opportunity. Talented young outhalf Harry West kicked them deep into opposition territory, before the forwards punched holes and created the chance for winger Ian West to score the game's opening try, reducing the overall deficit to 10 points.
