CIT flex muscles despite host of injuries

CIT produced a marvellous second half to see off Imokilly in round three of the Cork SHC at Páirc Uí Rinn last night and in the process served notice that, at full strength, they could have a huge say in the destination of this year’s title.

The students were forced to line out without county senior hurler Lorcan McLoughlin and county senior footballer Aidan Walsh, both of whom picked up injuries playing with their club in the IHC on Saturday night, and their situation was compounded by the loss of corner-back David Duggan, forced out with a knee injury after just two minutes.

However, they overcame those losses well and after the sides were level on four occasions, CIT’s marginally better hurling began to tell.
