Part of Micheal Donoghue's senior panel Molloy showed why he is rated as an exciting prospect in the west.
Waterford controlled their match against Antrim with Patrick Curran effective in attack.
Curran ended the game with a personal tally of 2-7 as a star studded Waterford advanced to the decider.
The Dungarvan forward led by example and Antrim were unable to stop the Waterford captain.

Nevin did well at midfield alongside Cappataggle colleague Darragh Dolan.
