Tears for heroes as Newmarket hurlers end 40-year title famine

Newmarket collected the Duhallow Junior Hurling Championship trophy last Sunday after a 40-year wait. Emotional? You could say that, according to club PRO Luke McCarthy.

“Absolutely, it was. A great day for the club. Lads crying and all of that. Obviously the lads on the team hadn’t seen that, the game 40 years ago, but even the older lads in the club, that was a long time to be waiting for it.”
