SP SL, Rathmore 3-19 De La Salle, Macroom 3-5: It’s now three wins from three for Pobalscoil Sliabh Luachra, Rathmore, in the Corn Uí Mhuirí after yet another impressive display in Mallow.

This time it was De La Salle, Macroom, who felt the full force of an impressive Kerry outfit that made light of the blustery conditions.

Rathmore were impressive from the first whistle and never let up against a Cork side that battled bravely throughout. First-half goals from corner-forward Shane O’Sullivan and full-forward Ian Roche set the winners on their way while wing forward Donal Moynihan, John O’Leary and Brian Friel also landed some fine scores.
