Jacob leads charge as champs Wexford tame Cork

URSULA JACOB led from the front to give champions Wexford their first victory in the second round of the All-Ireland senior camogie championship.

The Yellowbellies’ captain shot eight points, half of which came from play, to enable her side put last week’s loss to Galway behind them and claim victory over Cork at Páirc Uí Chaoimh on Saturday (0-14 to 1-8).

Mags D’Arcy played a significant part too though, making a stunning save from Gemma O’Connor’s last minute penalty to deny the hosts a share of the spoils.
