IT WASN’T LOVELY weather for hurling in today’s Fitzgibbon Cup clash in Dublin.

The players from DIT and DCU toughed it in the snow at DCU’s Sportsgrounds in their Group D tie.

DIT won the game by 0-10 to 0-7 to seal their passage to the quarter-finals and they certainly earned it given the conditions.
