Sunday March 18
Allianz Hurling League Division 1B Relegation Play/Off
Antrim v Laois, Dunloy, 2pm
Antrim’s perseverance was rewarded with a victory in Birr over Offaly. Now, though, the Saffrons want to retain 1B status by beating Laois at home.
Eamonn Kelly’s team had been moving fairly well, but two losses to Offaly and Dublin will have drained some confidence from the system.
LAOIS: Enda Rowland; Joe Phelan, Leigh Bergin, Lee Cleere; James Ryan, Matthew Whelan, Padraig Lawlor; Patrick Purcell, Ben Conroy; Willie Dunphy, Charles Dwyer, PJ Scully; Ross King, Neil Foyle, Stephen Bergin.
