Indianapolis
Hibernian Tournament
Sunday, August 1, 2010
Indianapolis played
host to the annual Hibernian Invitational Tournament.
The Cusack's, winners of the 2009 tournament, competed this
year against two teams from Indy, St. Louis, and Akron.
After a sluggish start, the Cusacks came alive. But,
it was too little too late. We split on the day,
losing the first two matches and winning the last two.
Congratulations to
tournament winners, Indianapolis. The Cusack's would
like to thank the Indy H.C. for hosting the tournament and
to all teams on a good day of games.
St. Louis
Festival of Gaelic Sports
Friday, July 9, 2010
The Cusack's travel
to St. Louis this weekend to participate in the the St.
Louis Gaelic Sport Festival. The event was a huge
success last year at the yanks from Chicago made it to the
final. However, the heat, exhaustion and plentiful St.
Louis club were too much to overcome.
This year the MCHC
plan on returning to Chicago with the first hardware of the
season.
Cusack's
Overcome Indianapolis
Friday, July 2, 2010
The Cusack's hosted
Indianapolis at Gaelic Park Saturday last. It was a
beautiful day for hurling and the two clubs put on an
entertaining display for the crowd. The program called
for two matches. The first match saw more of both
clubs' regulars. The second match was mainly contested
between more of the newcomers.
In the first match,
Indianapolis struck first lodging three quick points from
distance. The Cusack's took advantage of playing into
the wind in the first half by finding the back of the net
from a score attempt that fell short. The Cusack's
would continue to pressure the Indianapolis defense find the
net again before the half and taking advantage of each
placed ball. Indianapolis would continue their
accuracy but trailed at the half.
The second half was
much the same as the first. Both clubs put in
tremendous effort but at the final whistle the Cusack's
prevailed.
The second match
was a great success. Each club was able to get all
their players plenty of playing time and it was certainly a
learning experience. The talent and drive displayed at
the weekend's games are telling of bright futures for both
clubs.
