FITZGIBBON CUP medals are making their way back to Co Clare following the success of the University of Limerick.
Mark McKenna has been an ever-present member of Scariff’s intermediate management for the past five years as they fought to regain their senior status, on Sunday they reached their intended destination and few of the 200 plus people in Cusack Park could share his pride.
Scariff have been crowned intermediate hurling champions after deservingly emerging victorious against Tubber on Sunday evening.
There’s one glaring difference between Sunday’s finalists and the remainder of the clubs who have been relegated since the senior championship overhaul in 2014.
