Cork SHC round-up: Students shock for fancied Douglas

DESPITE eight points from new signing Cian McCarthy, Douglas fell to a surprise 0-22 to 0-20 defeat in the opening round of the Cork SHC on Sunday.

Douglas lined out without former Tipperary hurler Shane Bourke and Eoin Cadogan but they will have no complaints with the students more determined throughout.

At half-time CIT led, 0-14 to 0-11. Mikey Kearney, from Ballyduff Upper in Waterford, top scored for the students with seven points.
