St Paul's into semi

THREE in-a-row seeking St Paul's, Lurgan experienced little difficulty in reaching this season's Ulster Bank McDevitt Cup semi-finals after a 9-9 to 2-9 win over Fermanagh champions

St Joseph's Enniskillen at Garvaghey, writes Kevin Kelly.

The challengers put it up to the holders in the first half and it took goals from Tiernan Harbinson and Mark Cooper to give them a 2-4 to 1-3 interval lead.

The second half was one way traffic, though, as Harbinson and Rioghan Crawford both finished with 2-3 apiece and Curtis Hallisey (0-2), Cian France and Sean McKeown found the net as well as they made it through to a last four meeting with Derry champions St Brigid's and St Patrick's, Claudy.
