A WEEK AFTER starring in the Connacht Ladies Football final, Cora Staunton continued her prolific form yesterday as she plundered 9-12 in a club game.
The 9-time All Star is one of the most decorated players in the game but this is surely a new record as she tore the opposition apart during Carnacon’s demolition job.
In the end, the scoreline was a resounding 15-19 to 1-5.
Last week, Staunton scored 1-15 in the provincial final for Mayo and was awarded the player-of-the-match award for her efforts, although they were ultimately in vain as Galway prevailed by a single point.
Nonetheless, Mayo are certainly a side to watch in this year’s championship with Staunton in red hot form.
As one of her team-mates put it, “thank god she’s on our team.”
