Minor hurlers make one change for clash with Kilkenny

Fri, 13th May 2016

Dublin minor hurlers have made one change to their starting 15 for Saturday’s Electric Ireland Leinster MHC semi-final against Kilkenny in Parnell Park (3.0).

St Vincent’s Mark O’Keefe comes into the attack at right full-forward.

Otherwise it’s the same side that defeated Laois, 1-18 to 0-12, last time out when the deadball accuracy of Johnny McGuirk was central to Dublin’s victory.

The St Brigid’s man scored 0-11 (0-9f, 0-1 ‘65’) as Dublin prevailed by nine points having lost in extra-time to Wexford in their opening game of this year’s Leinster MHC.
