It was a case of – win and stay up – for Westmeath as 1-1 from midfielder Aoife Doherty contributed to a comfortable 8-point victory over a developing Laois side in the Very National League Division 2A Round 4 meeting, played in Joristown, Raharney, last Saturday afternoon.
Laois entered this game having played just three days earlier when they lost to Derry in a re-fixed game, also by eight points, on Wednesday evening last. On top of all that almost half of last Saturday’s Laois panel were to feature in a minor match the following morning.
