TREATY United leapfrogged Galway United into fourth place in the SSE Airtricity Women's Premier Division table after a 2-1 win in their head-to-head at the Markets Field on Saturday.
The result extended in-form Treaty United's unbeaten run in all competitions to six games.
In team news ahead of kick-off, Treaty manager Sean Russell brought Madison McGuane, Kate Jones and Ciara Breslin into the starting XI.
Before kick-off, Treaty United captain Jillian O'Toole and Galway United's Lynsey McKey laid down a wreath at the Markets Field in remembrance of the late Ollie Horgan, Galway United's assistant manager, who died on Thursday.
