Our hopes of winning back to back championships are still alive after a hard fought but deserved win over Monaghan Harps in Inniskeen last Sat evening. Playing with 14 men for most of the game after D O, Brien got a straight red just 6 min into the game, Latton work hard in the first half to hold Monaghan to just 1-3 to their 5pts. The Latton players put in a great second half performance with H, Mc Elory and B O, Brien kicking some great scores to help us to a 3pt win. Latton 0-11 Monaghan 1-5.
