UCC raise the ante to shake off Maynooth

However, despite playing a huge part in sealing UCC’s victory with nine pointed frees, corner-forward Rob O’Shea was sent off in the 52nd minute on a straight red which means he’ll miss their quarter-final in the Mardyke.
Level seven times in the opening half, UCC battled against a sticky pitch and a fired-up Maynooth University side to eventually put their opponents, who have not won the competition since 1974, away.
