The 2016 Hurler of the Year scored three sideline cuts for Mount Sion in the first-half, but they went in 1-7 to 0-8 behind after 1-3 from Shane Ryan for De La Salle.
Eddie Meaney, Paidi Nevin, Cormac McCann and Thomas Douglas all hit the net for the victors in the second period, with Gleeson netting a late consolation goal for Mount Sion from a penalty.
County star Pauric Mahony clipped over 0-9 as four-in-a-row champions Ballygunner had three points to spare over Roanmore. The sides were level at 1-6 to 0-9 at half-time after Brian O’Sullivan struck an early goal for Ballygunner.
The favourites went eight points clear in the third quarter but a late Eoin Madigan goal set-up a nervy finish before Ballygunner survived by 1-16 to 1-13.
On Saturday, Abbeyside enjoyed a convincing 2-22 to 0-10 win over Tallow.
