Glanworth 1-14 Glenville 1-9: It all started to go wrong for Glenville in the opening minutes when Glanworth opened up a four-point lead in this challenging Cork IFC round one battle at Rathcormac yesterday.

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.

Fermoy 1-8 Glanworth 0-6: Fermoy could afford the luxury of a missed first-half penalty and still finish comfortable winners over Glanworth in Saturday’s Cork IFC semi-final at Castlelyons.

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.

James Campion fired Fermoy to victory over rivals Glanworth in a tense Cork IFC clash at Castletownroche on Saturday evening.

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.

ÉIRE ÓG are through to play Kildorrery in the Cork IFC quarter final, after a hard fought victory over Glanworth at Riverstown yesterday.

NEWCESTOWN had star player and dead ball specialist Eoin Kelly to thank for their one point victory over Ballincollig in last night’s PIHC fourth round meeting at Cloughduv.

GLANWORTH reached round four of the Cork IFC last night after a good night’s work at Kilavullen’s GAA grounds.

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.

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.
