After a slow start, I’ve finally started adding stats for 2010. 4 championship matches gone in 2010 and already we’ve had one upset (Cork hammering Tipp by 10 points) and one near shock (Antrim so close to toppling Offaly). Hopefully 2010 will continue in the same vein. Here are the stats:
- Laois beat Carlow 1-13 to 0-10
- Galway beat Wexford 2-22 to 1-14
- Offaly beat Antrim after extra-time
- Cork beat Tipperary by 10 points
There were stand-out scoring performances by Shane Dooley for Offaly (1-11, 1-3 from play), Joe Fitzpatrick for Laois (1-3 from play), Ger Farragher for Galway (0-13, 0-2 from play) and Cork’s Pat Horgan (2-2, 1-2 from play).
I’ve also entered the stats so far for the Christy Ring Cup. The semi-finals are on this weekend with Kerry facing Wicklow and Kildare facing Westmeath.
