Armagh, who won the All-Ireland Junior title in 1993 and the Intermediate title in 1994, were competing for the first time and created the first of several major shocks when they defeated understrength title holders Galway by 3-8 to 0-13 at Middleton, with the help of a first half goals from Bernie McBride, a kicked goal from Patricia McEvoy as the game entered the last quarter and a late free from Ursula McGivern. Galway led by 0-9 to 1-4 at half time and Sharon Glynn was their only player to score, scoring all of but two of Galway’s points. Armagh then went on to defeat Wexford in the semi-final.
