Limerick edge battle of the Institutes

Limerick Institute of Technology 2-15 Cork Institute of Technology 3-11

Outplayed and outsmarted in the opening half, when trailing by seven points, they showed both style and commitment in the second period in holding off a game CIT outfit to win the Fresher’s Division One Hurling League title by a single point.

A Donal O’Reilly goal, one John Meyler will be annoyed with his defence over, almost from the restart gave LIT the perfect impetus to start their charge and with the strong wind at their backs they put in a towering half to deny a never-say-die CIT side.
