Ballyea were denied an All-Ireland title by Dublin’s Cuala on St Patrick’s Day last at Croke Park after a memorable campaign that saw them win their maiden Clare and Munster senior crowns last year.
Tony Kelly’s club will now face a last eight clash in this year’s Clare championship against a Newmarket-on-Fergus side that won the 2012 county senior title and lost the 2013 final.
The other standout game from the quarter-final draw sees 2014 champions Cratloe, who reached that year’s Munster club decider, take on 2015 winners Sixmilebridge.
