Hughes out despite injury fears easing
Hughes was taken to hospital after being stretchered off early in the second half, following a collision with Kevin Cassidy. But tests showed that the injury is not as serious as feared. Nevertheless, he is unlikely to play any part in Sunday’s Ulster derby meeting with All-Ireland champions Armagh at Omagh.
With the Sigerson Cup on in Cork this weekend and one northern university almost certain to the final, several Ulster counties could be without a number of key players.
