Injuries delay Tipp minor selection

INJURIES to centre back David Kennedy, wing back John Boland and wing forward Lee Shanahan have caused a delay in the selection of the Tipperary team for Sunday’s All-Ireland minor hurling championship semi-final clash with Wexford at Croke Park.

Injuries delay Tipp minor selection

Kennedy, Shanahan, Pat McCormack, Trevor Ivers and Pat Shortt were all members of the side that lost to Galway in last season’s semi-final. In fact this is the third successive minor campaign for goalkeeper and captain Pat McCormac, whose father Paddy, from the Thurles Sarsfields club, is coach to the side.
