Lethal Lehane fires UCC

FITZGIBBON CUP:

On the night Lehane was unplayable, the Midleton hit-man scoring points from all angles from play and frees and finding the home net with a well-taken 49th goal after he had ghosted inside the IT defence to crash the sliotar past a helpless Conor Clancy in the Carlow goal.

The opening half did not provide much indication it would eventually turn out in a clear-cut 13 point win for the Cork students. In the first minute UCC took the lead through a wonderful 80 metre point from their talented right half back and captain James Barry. The Upperchurch, Tipperary clubman added another wonderful long-range point from play later in the half.
