QUB and UUJ win in Sigerson Cup
Queen's and UUJ both claimed quarter-final victories in the Ulster Bank Sigerson Cup on Wednesday.
Hosts Queen's claimed a 1-12 to 2-5 win over UCD at Belfield while UUJ defeated NUI Galway 2-11 to 0-9 at Mullahoran.
Queen's led 0-5 to 0-3 at half-time and while Shane Lennon struck a 41st-minute goal for UCD, Ciaran O'Reilly's goal effectively ended the contest.
Patrick Cunningham and Raymond Mulgrew hit goals as UUJ led 2-4 to 0-6 at the break and they held on to win easily.
Ciaran O'Reilly (two), Paul Courtney, Gavin Donaghy and man-of-the-match Charlie Vernon hit Queen's first-half points at UCD's home venue.
Queen's extended their lead to 0-8 to 0-3 but Lennon's goal cut the northerners' lead to two points.
However, Fermanagh star O'Reilly hit the net without four minutes after great work by Vernon to put Queen's back in firm control.
Brian Mullin scored a 57th-minute goal for the home side but Queen's had already done enough.
At Mullahoran, UUJ did the hard work in the first half by forging a 2-4 to 0-6 lead despite playing against the wind.
Cunningham hit his goal after a flick-on by John Boyle while Mulgrew struck a superb second three-pointer after waltzing through the Galway defence.
Johnny Bradley, Ruairi Murray and Michael Herron were also on target in the first half while the second-half scorers included Murray and Cunningham.
