Six points separated the sides in Tuam.
CHAMPIONS MAYO CAPTURED their 42nd Connacht minor title when two goals in the third quarter proved decisive in an entertaining decider at Tuam Stadium.
Galway made the better start and rattled off the opening three points, with captain Shay McGlinchey getting two excellent efforts from distance off either foot after Charlie Cox had got them off the mark with a fourth minute free. Mayo captain Rio Mortimer, son of former All-Star Kenneth, went forward to shoot an excellent point and his half-back partner Fionan O’Reilly also landed a point in response to a snapped effort from Galway midfielder Olan Kelly to lead by the minimum at the interval.
