Sarsfields 1-19 Ballyhea 1-13: There may have been some confusion about the final scoreline in Fermoy yesterday in this first round Cork SHC game with the full-time scoreboard reading 1-18 to 1-14.

Imokilly 1-24 Sarsfields 2-21: Paudie O’Sullivan’s 64^th-minute equaliser for Imokilly ensured that the East Cork division and Sarsfields must meet again to determine Blackrock’s opponents in the Cork SHC final.

CBC Cork 9 Crescent Comprehensive 8: It won’t matter to Christian Brothers College Cork they won a record 29th Clayton Hotels Munster Schools Senior Cup title by just a point at the expense of unfortunate Crescent Comprehensive.

Christian Brothers College Cork survived a late rally by Crescent Comprehensive to win their 29th Munster Schools Senior Cup title in a welter of excitement at Musgrave Park today.

There’s more than city pride at stake as old rivals Christian Brothers College and Presentation Brothers College meet at Musgrave Park this afternoon (2.30pm) in the first of the Munster Schools Senior Cup semi-finals.

The remaining six Corn Uí Mhuirí quarter-final spots will be decided this afternoon, with the final round of group games across the province.

Sarsfields 0-16 Erins Own 1-13: What should have been the championship’s marquee fixture, one to give Cork hurling an esteem boost, instead turned out to be a mediocre affair with holders Sarsfields just about hanging onto their title – at least for another six days.

Glen Rovers have reached a second consecutive Cork SHC final but they will have to wait another week to find their opponents in the October 11th decider, with Erin’s Own and Sarsfields drawing in the second semi.

A crucial second-half goal by midfielder Brian Hurley cemented Blarney’s place in the quarter-final of the Premier IHC at Páirc Uí Rinn on Saturday night where the Mid Cork club were deserving winners over Mallow in a disappointing fourth round tie.

Mallow 3-20 Newcestown 3-19 (AET)

This is a big year for Ballinhassig. Not alone will they endeavour to regain their senior hurling status but they will also play their first games in their new development at Ballinaboy.

Sarsfields illustrated why they are regarded as one of the front-runners for this year’s Cork SHC after carving out a deserved, but hard-fought victory over Cloyne in their opening bout on Saturday evening.

Margins have been fine in this year’s Munster Senior Schoolgirls Cup, and it took sudden-death penalty strokes to crown Bandon Grammar as the 2012 champions in yesterday’s dramatic decider in Rosbrien.

IT MIGHT not have been the prize they targeted at the beginning of the season, but winning the Cork County Red FM senior hurling league (Denis Conroy Cup) at Páirc Uí Rinn on Saturday gives Sarsfields plenty of optimism for next year.

THIS was a contest to forget at Donoughmore on Saturday, Blarney and Mallow failing to ignite.

DEFENDING champions Sarsfields got off to a winning start in the opening round of the Cork SHC at Carrigtwohill on Saturday, but they were forced to sweat before overcoming a stubborn Cloyne challenge.

IN THE end Carrigaline had to dig deep, and were thankful for a productive opening half as they overcame Mallow in the first round of the Cork County Premier Intermediate Hurling Championship at Blarney last evening.

THEY have neither the high profile nor the heavy-hitting personnel of the big guns, but CIT maintained their interest in the Fitzgibbon Cup with a narrow quarter-final win at their impressive Bishopstown complex yesterday.

THEY may have been safely ensconced in the Fitzgibbon Cup quarter-finals before throw-in, but that did not impinge on Cork IT’s focus against Dublin IT yesterday.

TWO goals in the opening half set up Sarsfields for a hard-fought win over Midleton in the replay of the East Cork U21AHC final at Ballynoe yesterday.

RELIEF on the Sarsfields side that they somehow managed to win a game they appeared set to leave slip through their hands contrasted with a deep sense of frustration among Killeagh players and supporters that they missed out on a quarter-final place in the Evening Echo Cork SHC in Midleton on Sunday evening.
