Wicklow took a huge step towards securing their Allianz Hurling League Division 2A future for another year when they edged out Mayo by 1-16 to 1-13 at the Connacht Centre of Excellence in the only game in the Division played on Sunday.

Andy O’Brien struck 0-12 for Wicklow and helped to set up Enda Donohue’s goal that gave the Garden County a 1-9 to 0-6 interval lead, but a Cathal Freeman penalty and two quickfire Mayo points suggested that an upset was on the cards.
