IT WAS a memorable night for the Carbery hurlers as they saw off Carrigdhoun by 2-20 to 1-22 in a thriller.
Joe Ryan's team were down 1-22 to 0-20 going into the closing stages but goals from Bandon's Michael Cahalane and St Mary's player Darren O'Donovan sealed a massive win.
The Carbery mentor wanted a win to build confidence for his players and that’s exactly what they got.
The West Cork division progressed to the county college/divisional section semi finals after this victory.
‘It is a good boost for Carbery hurling. I loved the commitment and resilience the lads showed,’ a delighted Joe Ryan said.
