Oct 4 Town on top in early top of the table clash
A merited win away in Rathnew earlier today sees Arklow Town's U15A side firmly in the driving seat at the top of the Premier Division. Town looked the hungrier side throughout this close encounter between two familiar opponents and took the lead on the half hour mark through the lively Darragh O'Leary. Rathnew levelled in the 70th minute but any hopes of the home side earning at least a point for their comeback were dashed moments later with Town's next attack. The Arklow side forced a corner kick and from the dead ball John Kearon found the head of Ian Reid to head home Town's second goal, and the winner. Kyle Dowling had a superb game for Town and was deservedly named man of the match.

Arklow Town's U15 side have hit the ground running this new season and for the second game running put six past their opponents, today's opponents being Carnew.

Mark Hardy netted three times, reward for his industry and creation throughout, with Alan Sunderland also on the scoresheet. Ryan Forde made the most of his opportunity with a lovely finish and Liam Carroll capped a fine performance with an individual effort. Having reached the last eight at national level last season, in the SFAI Goodson Cup, the team are focused on this year's campaign, which begins with a trip to Newbridge Town next weekend.
