However, a couple of points from Conor Carton ultimately gave O’Toole’s some breathing space, as they led 0-10 to 0-8 at half-time.
There was little between the sides after the break as well, with Carton continuing to prove influential, though points from Danny Sutcliffe and Fionn Ó Riain Broin kept St Jude’s well in the game.
As the game progressed, both teams became more cautious, as scores from either side became increasingly rare.
Consequently, a Sutcliffe point in the 56th minute turned out to be the winner, as St Jude’s held out for a historic win.
