Super Sars end on high note

IT MIGHT not have been the prize they targeted at the beginning of the season, but winning the Cork County Red FM senior hurling league (Denis Conroy Cup) at Páirc Uí Rinn on Saturday gives Sarsfields plenty of optimism for next year.

As well as bridging a 13-year gap since their last league victory, they proved worthy winners in a contest that produced a high standard of hurling.

Following a disappointing championship campaign, Sarsfields boss John Crowley was delighted to finish the year on a positive note.
