Tipp unchanged for U21 hurling final
The Tipperary team for tomorrow night's Erin Munster Under-21 Hurling final is unchanged from the one that defeated Clare in the semi-finals last month.
The Premier county are able to call on three surviving members from last year's campaign - Eire Og defender Conor O'Brien, Gortnahoe/Glengoole forward Niall Teehan and senior panellist Darragh Egan - for the clash with Cork at Semple Stadium (throw-in 7.15pm).
Egan scored the 18th-minute goal which helped Tipp beat Clare 1-17 to 0-17 - the Kildangan danger man finished up with a tally of 1-5.
Toomevara's David Young captains the side.
This is the fourth consecutive final at this grade between these two counties, with Tipp winning twice (in 2003 and 2004) and the Rebels earning a 4-8 to 0-13 victory last year.
TIPPERARY (U-21HC v Cork) - G Kennedy; P Stapleton, A Burns, C O'Brien; D Young (capt), JB McCarthy, S Horan; J Woodlock, S Lillis; R O'Dwyer, N Teehan, D Sheppard; R Ruth, D Egan, R McLoughney.
