Hurling Championship draws made

Liam MacCarthy Cup holders Kilkenny will begin their five in-a-row assault in 2010 with a Leinster SHC semi-final tie against either Dublin, Carlow or Laois, following tonight's draw at Croke Park.

The Leinster Championship begins with neighbours Laois visiting Dr. Cullen Park to take on newly-promoted Christy Ring Cup champions Carlow.
