Glengarry hopes of winning shinty title hit for six by Newtonmore

North Division One

Newtonmore Reserves 6

Glengarry 2

Glengarry's hopes of winning North Division One and a play-off for a place in the National Division is out of their hands after being thrashed by Newtonmore Reserves.

The Invergarry outfit have finished the league season on 29 points and only needed a draw to win the title and face a play-off with South Division One champions Aberdour to gain promotion to the National Division in 2020.

Newtonmore Reserves are on 26 points and need to win their final two games to clinch North Division One. As a reserve team they are not eligible for promotion which would guarantee Aberdour would go up automatically.

Fraser Mackintosh gave Newtonmore the lead after six minutes but Nick Dalgety scored twice to put Glengarry 2-1 up after 33 minutes. Andrew Buchan equalised a minute before half time before Newtonmore ran riot in the second half with Glen MacKintosh scoring twice along with Drew MacDonald and Craig Macleod finding the net.
