The Donegal lads were up 1-1 before Rockland got over the black spot and never were headed from then. Up 2-5 to 1-4 at the interval, Donegal opened the second half with the second of Greg King’s two goals of the day.
A first half shot to the net by Brian Giveney and another by Paul Murrin in the second half left Rockland too much of a hill to climb.
The dependable Daniel Shovlin scored 3 points and veterans Anton Diver and Kevin Lilly contributed 2 each.
In all, a solid, well-played game with no controversy and good football by both teams added to the reputation of Junior B as perhaps the most entertaining division of the NY GAA.
The table-topping Juniors take on Offaly on 18 June while Donegal’s Senior squad face Cavan on Sunday and Leitrim on 29 June to finish the month.
