REIGNING DR HARTY Cup champions Our Lady’s Templemore will take on Limerick’s John The Baptist Hospital at the quarter-final stage in January while current Corn Uí Mhuirí kingpins St Brendan’s Killarney will meet Cork’s De La Salle Macroom.
The quarter-final draws took place tonight for the premier Munster GAA post-primary competitions.
Both Our Lady’s and St Brendan’s won their respective All-Ireland titles last spring with victories in the Croke Cup and Hogan Cup deciders.
In the Harty Cup, there will be an all-Cork meeting as 2017 finalists St Colman’s Fermoy will take on CBC Cork in a last eight clash.
There will be a repeat of the Dean Ryan Cup (U16 1/2) final from last November when Thurles CBS face Midleton CBS and the remaining quarter-final tie will be a battle between Limerick’s Árdscoil Rís and Cork’s Gaelcholáiste Mhuire AG.
In the Corn Uí Mhuirí the 2017 finalists Tralee CBS go up against Clare’s St Flannan’s. There will be an all Kerry meeting as Dingle’s PS Chorca Dhuibhne meet IS Killorglin and an all Cork clash between Coláiste Choilm Ballincollig and Hamilton HS Bandon.
