Kilbrittain 0-17 Cloyne 1-12

COURCEY ROVERS are just one step from senior ranks after surviving a stern test from Kilbrittain before a big crowd at Páirc Uí Rinn on Saturday.

KILBRITTAIN advanced to the next round of the Premier IHC as they finished strongly to overcome Inniscarra at Cloughduv yesterday.

HE has formed a reputation as a football defender of note during his career but it was on the hurling stage where Owen Sexton was the hero in yesterday’s Evening Echo Cork IHC semi-final in Páirc Uí Chaoimh.

WITH five minutes remaining in this thrilling Datapac Ryan Cup final at the Athlone IT Grounds on Saturday, Cork College of Further Education looked to have blown it when substitute Eamon Morrissey's goal gave St Pats a one point lead.
