Heroic Hammersley points the way for WIT
In the process they have reignited their campaign after last week’s defeat by LIT. This win was a big boost for the Colm Bonnar-coached side and they will have home advantage for next week’s quarter-final against DIT.
By the final whistle Hammersley had 13 points to his name. He drilled over eight from frees and shone in open play as well with five fine points. The timing of the Tipperary man’s scoring bursts was critical in terms of settling the issue. Four points in the closing stage of the first-half enabled WIT to edge 0-9 to 1-5 ahead at the break and when the match was tense near the finish, it was a three-point salvo by Hammersley that put daylight between the teams.
