With four out of five Clare representatives exiting their respective Munster Senior Post-Primary Championships this week, all eyes are on Ardscoil Rís (Senior A Hurling) and CBS Ennistymon (Senior C Hurling) who are bidding for provincial final places this Saturday.
Ardscoil Rís’ 17-strong Clare contingent, along with mentor Paul Flanagan, will be determined to make amends for last year’s Munster Under 19A Final reverse to St Joseph’s Tulla as despite going on to secure All-Ireland honours, it was their only Harty Cup Final reverse in six attempts.
Nine Banner natives saw action in their rousing quarter-final finish against Our Lady’s Templemore but they will be wary of a scorned Cashel Community School who suffered their only defeat against the Limerick college by a goal at the group stages only three months ago.
Having already secured redemption to win the Dean Ryan honours, Ardscoil will require their best display of the campaign if they are to double the dose against Cashel in Kilmallock on Saturday at 12.30pm.
At the same time in UL, CBS Ennistymon are presented with the unique scenario of facing the same opposition in successive munster senior semi-finals in the space of a week.
Cork’s CBS Mitchelstown provide the obstinate double challenge as the North Clare side look to successfully defend their Munster Under 19C Hurling crown before renewing acquaintances seven days later in the Senior B Football equivalent.
One team already through to a Munster decider are St Joseph’s Spanish Point who powered through to the Under 19D Final thanks to a commanding double scores 1-15 to 0-9 penultimate stage win over Cork’s Coláiste Ghobnatan Ballyvourney in Rathkeale on Thursday.
Their hosts Coláiste na Trocaire Rathkeale will be the West Clare school’s opponent’s in three weeks’ time.
