The Dublin College University (DCU) team won the 2nd Year All-Ireland Hurling championship, defeating The Technological University of the Shannon: Midlands Midwest (TUS) in the final on a score-line of 2-22 to 2-13.

Four Wexford players started in the attack for the DCU college side. Dylan O’Neill from the Shelmaliers started at wing-forward, Richie Lawlor (Faythe Harriers) started at centre-forward, and both Mossy Murphy (Blackwater) and Glenn Murphy Butler (Faythe Harriers) started as the two corner-forwards.

It’s great to see Wexford being so strongly represented on an All-Ireland hurling winning team. No doubt, this will bode well for the future of Wexford hurling.
