UL have made it two wins from two in this year's Fitzgibbon Cup.

Tipp's John McGrath and Waterford's Stephen Bennett each struck 1-5 in a 2-21 to 2-12 victory over NUI Galway - it's a win that secures their quarter-final spot.

Ballyea’s Tony Kelly did not feature for the Treaty County side this afternoon. Sam Conlon's goal couldn't spark a comeback for NUIG, who slumped to a nine-point defeat.
