Two goals in four minutes coming to the first water break set Thurles Sarsfields up for an unexpectedly comfortable 3-22 to 1-19 win over Loughmore-Castleiney in the Mid senior hurling final at Holycross.

A contest that promised much fizzled out in the second half with the winners' third goal. Loughmore’s green flag from Noel McGrath came in injury-time.
