Captain Sean Wilson, from Buncrana, lost his game giving Wexford their 1st point. But the troupes rallied and support was high as Adrian Divine, also from Buncrana, took to the stage where he made it 4-1 for Donegal. Reece Brennan was in top form as he took another leg from Wexford and made it 5-1. Gerard McGlynn wasn't going to see the final lose him a match this weekend and for a 100% record he made it 6-1. They only needed 1 more to claim the title.
Cartha Boyle was next up but his opponent took 1 back for Wexford. The roaring support from the crowd was enough to spur on Charlie Grant, from Quigley's Point, to win the game for his teammates. With a 132 check out in the 3rd leg and a 15 darter to win the match the Inishowen man certainly gave his all to crown Donegal the All Ireland Champions.
