Early goals steer IT Carlow home against Limerick

IT Carlow 4-16

DJ Carey’s IT Carlow, at the third time of asking, have finally secured passage to the Fitzgibbon Cup finals weekend.

The Kilkenny legend has spent the past three years moulding a team that could live with the traditional powerhouses of the third-level scene and while three consecutive league titles were annexed, the hurlers of IT Carlow had twice fallen at the quarter-final hurdle in the Fitzgibbon.
