Knockout Stages Set For Laois Senior Hurling Championship

Monday, 27 September 2021 11:49

A full round-up of this weekend's action.

The knockout stages of the Laois Senior Hurling Championship are set following the last set of round robin games. 

There was plenty still to play for including two direct semi-final spots and avoiding the relegation final. 

Ultimately The Harps and Abbeyleix St. Lazarians have been condemned to fight the drop after defeats against Camross and Rosenallis left them bottom of their respective groups. 

2018 winners Camross will face Castletown in the knockout stages after reigning champions Clough/Ballacolla dispatched them to secure a semi-final position and top spot in group A.

The defending champions remain unbeaten having racked up 107 points across the three game group phase. 

The premier fixture of the weekend was the repeat of the 2019 decider with Rathdowney Errill against Borris in Ossory Kilcotton. 

Borris/Kilcotton managed to gain revenge by the narrowest of margins and with it the direct spot to the last four. 

There's a high possibility these two will meet again before this championship is settled. 

Results in full:

  • Rathdowney Errill 2-16 V 1-20 Borris in Ossory Kilcotton
  • Abbeyleix St Lazarians 1-16 V 2-23 Camross GAA Club
