Richie McCarthy happy with Limerick momentum after Waterford Crystal Cup win

Richie McCarthy believes Saturday’s Waterford Crystal Cup triumph over Cork was crucial in maintaining the positivity surrounding Limerick hurling.

In his post-match assessment at Mallow, Treaty County manager TJ Ryan said it was important “to keep the good news coming”, a sentiment echoed by the Limerick full-back.

“It is a nice way to end January. It is nice to end a month which isn’t massively conducive to hurling with a couple of wins and some silverware,” he said.
