Pobalscoil Chorca Dhuibhne 1-11 De La Salle, Macroom 1-3: Holders Pobalscoil Chorca Dhuibhne are still alive in this season’s Corn Ui Mhuiri, after proving far too strong for De La Salle, Macroom at Lewis Road, Killarney, despite playing almost the entire second half with 14 players.

With 20 titles, St Brendan’s College’s position at the top of the Corn Uí Mhuirí roll of honour is assured for a while yet.

Pobalscoil Sliabh Luachra, Rathmore 4-12 Pobalscoil Chorcha Dhuibhne 2-9: Sliabh Luachra Rathmore caused a major upset in the opening round of this season’s Munster Colleges, Corn Ui Mhuiri Group C, with a comprehensive win over the Corn Uí Mhuirí winners of the last four years, Corca Dhuibhne.

If the first weekend is anything to go by, this season’s Munster Junior League should be another captivating campaign. Some early favourites started off impressively and will be aiming to follow up their opening-day victories.
