When DkIT bowed out of the Sigerson Cup in early February at the hands of GMIT, few would have predicted that Louth's Andy McDonnell, Declan Byrne, Derek Maguire and Jamie Faulkner would be facing their teammate, Meath's Paddy O'Rourke in a Leinster Senior Football Championship Final later that summer.
Hurlers qualify for All Ireland Final
DkIT Hurlers qualified for the All Ireland Hurling Final (Fergal Maher Cup) today beating IT Tallagh 4-13 to 1-11.
They will now take on Napier University Edinburgh in the final, which takes place tomorrow (Sat 6th March) in NUIG, Galway at 12 noon.
Napier overcame Coláiste Mhuire Marino in the other semi final 9-13 to 0-07. They will start tomorrows game as favourites but DkIT will hopefully show the same spirt that they have shown all year and come away with another great result.
Best of luck to Shane D'Arcy and the all team from everyone in DkIT. Hopefully they will return to College on Monday with another All Ireland Trophy.
