Sunday’s Kilkenny Honda Centre Minor C Hurling final sees Blacks & Whites and Kilmacow.
From the outset many had these two sides as the ones to watch out for.
Kilmacow had a good win in the first round over John Lockes where early goals did the damage. In the all south semi final it was a high octane affair between themselves & Mullinavat. The scoring was high with the standard more akin to a Roinn A clash James Walsh, Tom Butler & Liam Lacey were to the fore as they eventually outlasted their neighbours 3-14 to 2-12.
Blacks & Whites first foray into championship saw them venture south and a late scoring burst from Senan Doyle & Sam Byrne was enough to garner the 1-16 to 2-7 win. Their semi final win was something of a one sided affair as they had too much class for a young Ballyhale Shamrocks.
There will be a number of county players on show for both sides and it’ll be interesting to see who can get their paws on the cup.
