LIT edge out UCD, but both qualify for last eight

LIMERICK IT were deserving victors in this entertaining Fitzgibbon Cup tie at Belfield yesterday, but UCD will look on it as a mission accomplished too.

By limiting their defeat to a three point margin the hosts also managed to squeeze through to the quarter-finals at the expense of Waterford IT.

Both teams were tied on points and scoring difference, but UCD advance because they scored two more points than WIT managed in their two round-robin matches.
