Blackwater Community School from Lismore and Thurles CBS has joined holders Dungarvan Colleges in the quarter finals of this year’s Dr. Harty Senior Hurling Competition.

Holders Dungarvan Colleges last week booked their place in the last eight of the competition with a comprehensive 5-24 to 1-4 victory over Gael Coláiste Mhuire from Cork, and they were joined by the Lismore and Thurles sides today (Wednesday) after victories over West Limerick Colleges and Hamilton High School from Bandon respectfully.

In Group One, Ard Scoil Rís from Limerick took a massive step towards reaching the last eight of the competition with a three point win over Saint Colman’s from Fermoy. The Limerick side won the game 2-15 to 2-12 and will move even closer to securing their place in the last eight tomorrow (Thursday) should De La Salle fail to beat Clonmel CBS at the Saint Mollerans Club Grounds in Carrickbeg.

In group two Blackwater Community School despite been short a number of players who are due to play in this Saturday’s Under 21 County Final with Saint Carthage’s always proved too strong for West Limerick Colleges when the sides clashed at Mallow. The West Waterford side won the game 2-15 to 0-14 and should they now win their last game against Our Lady’s from Templemore they will enter the quarter final draw a seeded team having won the group despite a further round of games to be played. In the second game played in Group two, Abbey CBS from Tipperary proved too strong for Charleville, winning the game 1-16 to 0-13.

In Group three Thurles CBS are through to the last eight of the competition after they had a comprehensive 3-26 to 0-11 win over Hamilton High School from Bandon in Fermoy. In the second game played in group two Nenagh CBS who were beaten in the final of the 2011/12 competition at the hands of Coláiste na nDéise did their chances of reaching the quarter final stages of this years competition the world of good when they recorded a 1-19 to 0-7 victory over Coláiste Chriost Rí from Cork at Charleville.
