The Harty Cup (Munster Post Primary Schools Senior 'A' Hurling Championship).

The Limerick students prevailed on a scoreline of 3-18 to 2-10 with their goals coming from Rian Considine, Cathal O'Neill and Diarmuid Ryan.
The winners took a 2-7 to 0-6 lead into the break and Ryan's 44th minute goal effectively ended the game as contest.
That left Ardscoil Ris 3-11 to 0-7 to the good before Midleton netted a couple of consolation goals through Liam Gosnell and Joe Stack.
Centre-forward Paul O'Brien took the scoring honours for the winners with 0-8.
