YMCA regained their composure at the start of the fourth period. However, as they pulled their keeper in search of more goals, the visitors were caught on the break. Two late goals from Matthew McKee<\/strong> and Owen Magee<\/strong> saw Banbridge start their Championship defence with a resounding 5-1 win at the final hooter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
