Carrickmore took over the leadership of the Division One table temporarily with two wins from two over the long weekend.

They made a roaring start with a 4-11 to 0-7 win over Eglish at Pairc Colmcille.

Danny Fullerton’s goal sent them in with a 1-7 to 0-3 interval lead, and they killed the game off with three more goals in the final quarter to complete a comprehensive victory.

Lorcan McGarrity and Rory Donnelly both hit the net, before Fullerton grabbed his second a couple of minutes from the end.
And on Sunday, six Fullerton points helped them to a 0-18 to 1-10 win over Coalisland, who have slipped into the bottom two following a run of poor results.

Dromore saw off Loughmacrory at Gardrum Park, with Niall Sludden and Declan McNulty on target, while Killyclogher defeated Coalisland by 0-10 to 0-5, with scores from Conall McCann, Odhran Potter and Darragh Hayes, plunging Fianna towards the danger zone.
