Canning fires LIT to decider

LIT 1-16 UL 2-9

Yesterday, at the IT Carlow grounds, he contributed a massive 1-8 to help LIT edge out arch rivals UL to reach their second final in three years.

In the three games LIT have played so far in the championship, the Galway youngster, who recently won the Irish Examiner Junior Sports star of the Year award, has amassed the staggering 4-25, and even if he fails to score in this afternoon’s final in Dr Cullen Park, he will finish the tournament’s top scorer.
