Armagh Football Star Has Major Impact In Ulster Hurling Quarter-Final

Croabh Rua Camlocha defeated St Eunans in the quarter-finals of the Ulster Junior Club Hurling Championship on Saturday.

Armagh junior champions Craobh Rua beat the Donegal senior winners 3-10 to 2-8.

Craobh Rua's victory was built on a rapid start to the game. At half-time, they led 2-8 to 0-4 with both of their goals coming from Armagh football star Jarly Óg Burns.

In the eighth minute, Burns - who plays football with Silverbridge - caught a ball hit from midfield in the large rectangle, turned inside the St Eunans defender and struck the sliotar past Cian Hennessy.
