They combined for the moment of the match on 26 minutes in Sunday’s All-Ireland Post Primary Schools Senior B Ladies Football Final as Glenamaddy Community School ran out 5-13 to 2-7 winners in Duggan Park, Ballinasloe.
Maeve Flanagan overturned an attempted clearance by the Presentation, Thurles defence before spotting her Kilkerrin/Clonberne team mate. And feeling confident after an earlier green flag, Morrissey successfully attempted the lob beating keeper Muireann Lloyd and setting her team up for glory.
