ARDARA CELEBRATED their return to Division One in style with a big win over Dungloe at Pearse Park last night.

Ardara 2-22 Dungloe 0-12

First-half goals by Danny Walsh and Johnny Sweeney, as well as seven points by Niall McCrossan, gave the Kentucky men a fine scoreline on a night when they were presented with the Division Two cup.

Ardara are without Donegal star Paddy McGrath, who is recovering from a cruciate injury, while the likes of Conor Classon and Gareth Concarr were also absent.

Walsh and Sweeney hit the net in the first half as Ardara opened up a 2-8 to 0-4 lead.

Ten players registered points for the home side with Walsh and Sweeney landing 1-1, Paul Watters scoring three times and McCrossan continuing his fine recent form.
