Westmeath ran out nine-point winners at Croke Park.
Westmeath's fast start was key as they overcame Offaly in the Tailteann Cup semi-finals yesterday.
The men from the Lake County withstood moments of resurgence from Offaly to eventually run out 3-22 to 2-16 winners at Croke Park.
John Heslin kicked eight points for Westmeath, while Lorcan Dolan hit 2-1.
Westmeath Manager Jack Cooney says they still have plenty of things to improve on:
Offaly Manager John Maughan acknowledged that his side were outclassed yesterday.
He's declined to confirm whether he'll seek another term in charge, but sounded a negative tone on the prospect yesterday:
Westmeath will face Cavan in the first every Tailteann Cup Final after the Ulster side ran out 0-20 to 1-14 winners over Sligo.
