'Babs' to see out second year

The Tipperary County Board have confirmed that 2007 will see Michael 'Babs' Keating continuing in his role as the Premier county's senior hurling manager.

Keating was handed a two-year term when he was initially appointed last October, and at a Board meeting in Thurles last night, the Ballybacon-Grange clubman was reinstalled for another season, along with selectors Tom Barry and John Leahy.
