There is a familar look to S.H.C. with just two rounds played.

Four games in the second round of this year’s JJ Kavanagh and Sons Waterford Senior Hurling Championship were played over the weekend with games ending along expected expectations.

Two games were played at Fraher Field on Saturday evening and resulted in victories for city pair De La Salle and Mount Sion.

In the opening game apart from the first ten minutes when An Rinn put it up to them, De La Salle always looked like they were going to win this game. Dean Twomey helped set up Jake Dillon on eight minutes for a well taken goal and the rolls were reversed late in the opening half as Dillon set up Dean Twomey for a goal which helped the reigning senior Champions to a 2-9 to 0-4 lead at the break.

Two quick fire goals inside sixty seconds as the third quarter of the game helped extend De La Salle’s lead considerably and although An Rinn did manage some late scores they proves to be mere consolation scores and help put a gloss on their half of the score board.

The second game was a much more even game.

Abbeyside at the break held a 1-12 to 1-10 advantage. Their goal came very early in the game when a long ball into the Mount Sion goal mouth saw Ian O’Regan caught out with a blinding sun and Patrick Hurney finished to the net with ease.

Mount Sion however were not long behind as on eight minutes Sean Ryan set up Stephen Roche for a well taken goal which levelled matters at 1-2 a piece.

During the course of the game Mount Sion goal keeper Ian O’Regan made three top class saves to deny Abbeyside goal chances and those that will have people wondering with the Munster Championship game with Clare drawing ever closer, if the goal keeping position is as clear cut as some people are suggesting.

Towards the end of the game Mount Sion’s Ian Galgey picked up a serious injury which looks as though it will rule him out for a considerably large portion of the year.

Ballygunner recorded their first championship win of the year this past weekend when they accounted for Roanmore with some ease at Walsh Park.

Brian O’Sullivan hit the Gunners goal in a 1-20 to 0-11 victory. The game was marred by a melee early in the game that had up to 30 players involved in it.

In Cappoquin, Fourmilewater came out on top against Tallow. Both sides finished the game with fourteen minutes as Tallow’s Aidan Kearney and Fourmilewater’s Jamie Barron were send off in the third quarter of the game.

Tallow played with a strong wind in the first half but trailed at the break 2-5 to 0-8, both Fourmilewater’s goals coming from the stick of Jamie Barron.

The first came on eleven minutes when he gave Shaun O’Sullivan in the Tallow goal no chance with a powerfully driven shot the second coming on twenty minutes from the penalty spot after Craig Guiry was fouled.

Tallow began the second half well and won a penalty of their own two minutes into the second half but Thomas Ryan saw his effort saved by Brendan Lawlor.

The dismissal of Kearney and Barron on forty minutes was more of a blow to Tallow than Fourmilewater as the extra room in the Tallow full back line allowed Shane Walsh and Conor Gleeson more space to run at the goals.

Fourmilewater won a third penalty late in the game which Shane Ryan on free taking duty in place of Jamie Barron popped over the bar which helped his side to a 2-11 to 0-13 victory.

The games between Ballyduff and Lismore in Tallow and Dungarvan and Passage in Walsh Park were postponed due to bereavements within the Ballyduff and Dungarvan Clubs.
