LIMERICK maintained their hopes of reaching this year's Division 1B Centra National Camogie League final after scoring an exciting 3-13 to 1-11 victory over Wexford at TUS Mid-West on Saturday afternoon.

Limerick's away date with Dublin on Saturday next will decided which of the two counties joins Clare in the Division 1B final.

A draw next weekend will suffice for Limerick to reach the final against the Banner after the Shannonsiders comfortable win over the Model County on Saturday.

Donna Kenny scored 1-5 for Limerick who led their visitors 2-7 to 0-6 at half-time.

The additional Limerick goals came courtesy of Rebecca Delee and Laura Southern, while there was 0-2 each from Ella Hession and Sarah O'Brien in Limerick’s success.

Chloe Cashe struck seven points for the visitors, with Ciara Butler on the mark for a goal, but a missed penalty from Joanne Dillon saw the Model County’s last lifeline drift away.

Also in Division 1B on Saturday, Clare booked their place in the decider after overcoming the concession of an early goal to beat Down by 3-18 to 1-8 at Zimmer Biomet Cusack Park.
Points from Caoimhe Cahill, Áine O’Loughlin and Jennifer Daly cancelled out the early goal and set Clare on the road to an 0-14 to 1-4 half-time lead, despite having played into the breeze in Ennis.
Ellen Casey came off the bench to field a long delivery from Clare Hehir and produce a clinical catch and finish for a decisive goal, and that was followed up with further green flags from Maeve Millea and Áine O’Loughlin, the latter capitalising on a superb delivery from Daly.
