Sexton underlines East Cork dominance

Terry Sexton completed an amazing three-in-a-row for East Cork when he beat Jerry Murphy in the Munster Junior B final at Waterfall on Sunday.

Sexton underlines East Cork dominance

In five years, the region has won four Junior B titles, starting with in 2008 with Mick Hurley, the only one to win the All-Ireland. Billy Dalton won in 2010 and Wayne Kingston in 2011. Sexton will have his chance to emulate Hurley next Saturday against Ulster’s Ruairi O’Reilly in Dunmanway.

He missed the Glasha with his first shot, while Murphy got a great bowl. Murphy still held a 60m lead despite Sexton’s good second, but it was back to 20m after three to Lynch’s. Murphy had 40m odds after two more, but was just five metres fore at Mehigan’s. Sexton won his first lead with a great seventh throw to the senior bend and was close to a bowl in front when it took Murphy two to beat it.
