LYNG'S CATS LOOK IN FIGHTING 'TRIM

A DOMINANT second period saw Kilkenny break Antrim resistance at Corrigan Park as they made it two wins from two in the Leinster Senior Hurling Championship yesterday.

Trailing by one at the break, Derek Lyng's charges upped the pace in the second period and when Martin Keoghan punished an error in the 51st minute to find the net, there was no looking back for Kilkenny.

Until then, Antrim had matched them and were worthy of their lead at the half, having recovered from a slow start and perhaps could have been a little further ahead by the short whistle.

However, Kilkenny would out-score Davy Fitzgerald's men by 2-13 to 0-1 from the 48th minute on with Eoin Cody leading the charge with 1-13 to his name.
