UCD have booked their place in the semi finals of the Sigerson Cup after a 1-18 to 0-9 over UUJ.

The only goal of the game came from the boot of Conor McCarthy in the second half. That contributed to his tally of 1-2 for the day.

Dublin senior stars Jack McCaffrey, Paul Mannion and Michael Fitzsimons all featured for UCD as they advanced to the next stage.

Mannion scored 0-7, although only one of those came from open play with 0-6 from frees.
