Spioraid Naoimh already through

THE Irish Examiner Dr Harty Cup is hotting up with a number of crucial ties during the coming week.

With two teams from each of the four sections going through to the knock-out stages and a number of schools tied on equal points, qualification may come down to scoring difference.

Coláiste An Spioraid Naoimh are the only team definitely through to the quarter-finals. Playing in the competition for the first time, they have maximum points from two games, and irrespective of the result tomorrow against defending champions St Colman’s, they cannot be caught.
