Croke Cup holders St. Kieran's crushed Good Counsel in Thomastown this afternoon to set up a Leinster PP SH 'A' final date with another Wexford school, St. Peter's College, next weekend.

Dead ball specialist Ray Lahart posted 0-10 in what was a stunning performance by the All-Ireland champions. It was all over bar the shouting at half-time when scores from Lahart, Richie Leahy and Tadhg O'Dwyer helped the wind-assisted winners to a 0-14 to 0-2 lead.

O'Dwyer scored the game's only goal in the second half as the New Ross boys were overwhelmed.

Scorers - St Kieran's College: R. Lahart (0-10); T. O'Dwyer (1-2); R. Leahy, S. Morrissey (0-2 each); J. Byrne, L. Blanchfield (0-1 each). Good Counsel: D. Joyce (0-3); B. Whitty, K. O'Connor (0-1 each).
