O'Donoghue captain as Tipperary name U20 side for Munster opener

Tipperary face Cork in Thurles.

TIPPERARY BOSS BRENDAN Cummins has named his starting side as they begin the defence of the county’s All-Ireland U20 hurling title tomorrow night with a Munster opener against Cork.

Cummins, who guided Tipperary to final glory against Kilkenny last year, has unveiled a team that will be captained by senior star Oisin O’Donoghue.

Defenders Cathal O’Reilly and Adam Ryan, along with wing-forward David Costigan are others who started on last year’s victorious team. Corner-forwards Jamie Ormond and Cormac Fitzpatrick came on in that final success over Kilkenny, while wing-back David Ryan was on the bench.

Full-forward Stefan Tobin has featured for Liam Cahill’s senior team in the league this year, along with O’Donoghue and O’Reilly. Throw-in is 7pm in Thurles.

Waterford have named seven of last year’s All-Ireland minor winning side for their U20 opener against Clare tomorrow night.

Goalkeeper James Comerford, defenders Darragh Keane, Conor Lynch, and Bradley Penkert, midfielder Hugo Quann, and the forward duo of Shane Power and Geraoid O’Shea, all started in that success against Kilkenny last year.

O’Shea scored 1-3 last week as St Kieran’s Kilkenny won the Croke Cup, while Mark Hartley played in the All-Ireland senior club final with Ballygunner earlier this year.

Throw-in is 7pm in Sixmilebridge.
