Offaly end Limerick hopes in Division 1B of the Allianz Hurling League

For the second year in a row, Offaly have brought an end to Limerick’s promotion aspirations in Division 1B of the Allianz Hurling League.

Last year, it was a draw in Tullamore and on Saturday night Brian Whelehan’s Faithful side inflicted a first defeat of the year on Limerick to leave promotion between Wexford and Waterford.

While there was a goal between the sides at the end in the floodlit Gaelic Grounds, there was no smash and grab victory from Offaly.
