Cork C of I out to knock Railway off treble track

TREBLE-CHASING Railway Union will hope to put one foot in the semi-finals of the Irish Hockey League tomorrow as they take on Cork Church of Ireland at Garryduff (2pm).

Mick McKinnon’s side need just eight more points to wrest the Leinster league title from Hermes, who will also provide their opposition in the Jacqui Potter Cup final, while a win in Cork — where they have already conquered UCC in the Irish Senior Cup — will go a long way to giving them a place in the last four.

C of I are realistically playing for little but pride having lost two of their three IHL encounters so far, but will have the inside track on their Dublin rivals thanks to Jennifer Kenefick, who returned to the club in mid-season after a couple of years at Railway.
