Messrs Fortune and Cooney both ‘had a Luxembourg’ in their round robin games in National League Division 2A (hurling) and 3 (football) respectively. Thankfully, the hurlers’ dismal showing in Carlow didn’t prove to be fatal, but the footballers’ poor display against Longford in TEG Cusack Park did. Antrim hurlers have come on in leaps and bounds by producing very creditable displays in Division 1. Westmeath: J Gillen 0-7 (4f, 2‘65’), D McNicholas 1-1, J Boyle 0-3, C Doyle (1f) and K Doyle 0-2 each, T Doyle 0-1. Subs used: Eoin Keyes for McNicholas (45), Johnny Bermingham for Greville (52), Eoghan Ahearn for Gillen (57), Darragh Clinton for C Doyle (70).
