Friday Night Results: It was an action packed evening in Tipperary hurling circles


The stakes got even higher in the senior hurling championship as recent winners Borris Ileigh and Kilruane MacDonaghs went head to head at Dolla and in the end the Cloughjordan side edged a close encounter 1-18 to 1-17 despite Borris doing a lot of the early running in the game.
In The Ragg it was Knockavilla Kickhams who came a cropper against a goal hungry Moneygall with the Dan Hackett coached winning on a 4-22 to 1-21 scoreline. The standout player was county star Sean Kenneally along with the two Fogartys who also hurled very well for Moneygall.
Kickhams had Stephen Browne and Adam Daly in good form but despite a couple of good saves by Eoin Horgan they were beaten in the end with the key goals coming just before and after the break.
