Culdaff replied with Niall McLaughlin knocking the ball down for Mick McLaughlin but he hit the side netting before Patrick McLaughlin’s goalbound effort was cleared off the line by Brian Farren.
Niall Mclaughlin then laid the ball off to Gerard Mclaughlin but he shot just past Liam Davenport’s left hand post.
Redcastle replied on 36 minutes when Seamus Farren fed Brendan Murphy and his low shot was blocked by the outstretched legs of George Houten.
The last chance of the half fell to the visitors when Niall McLaughlin had a low effort well saved by Davenport.
Redcastle dominated the second period and opened the scoring on 47 minutes after Murphy controlled well and shot low past Houten from eight yards.
Colm McLaughlin then fired a shot off the post from the edge of the area before on 55 minutes Matt Grant fed Murphy who turned well and shot home from six yards.
