Adam Loughran opened the scoring after 11 minutes and both sides were guilty of missing chances during the early exchanges. O’Hanlon’s hit back with a bang when Ryan Cookson fired home a superb goal to earn their first score.
Loughran grabbed another for the men in maroon but it was cancelled out by a Daragh McNulty free. Cookson then chipped in with two further points to grow his individual tally and extend their lead to four.
