The foundations for this victory was a powerful first half performance when Davitts dominated their hosts and led by 1-7 to 0-4 at halftime after playing against the stiff wind. Aidan McTigue was in top form in attack scoring 1-3 in that first half, while Davitts halfbackline of the inspirational Colm Boyle, James Cummins and Johnno Clarke were in a very uncompromising mood.
