THREE CORK SENIOR panel members have been named to start for the county’s U20 side in their opening Munster hurling championship game on Wednesday night.
Cork take on Waterford in Páirc Uí Chaoimh in the Round 2 encounter, the opening games on Saturday having seen Clare draw with Tipperary and Waterford lose out to Limerick.
Cork boss Ben O’Connor is able to call on defender Eoin Downey and the attacking pair of Colin Walsh and Ben Cunningham, all who have featured at senior level this spring. The Cork team for their opening game of the 2023 campaign also included goalkeeper Brion Saunderson as a survivor from last year’s U20 team.
There are starting spots for 2021 All-Ireland minor winners Darragh O’Sullivan, James Dwyer, Mikey Finn, Diarmuid Healy and Jack Leahy.

Cork, Waterford and Limerick name sides for Munster U20 hurling ties
THREE CORK SENIOR panel members have been named to start for the county’s U20 side in their opening Munster hurling championship game on Wednesday night.
Cork take on Waterford in Páirc Uí Chaoimh in the Round 2 encounter, the opening games on Saturday having seen Clare draw with Tipperary and Waterford lose out to Limerick.
Cork boss Ben O’Connor is able to call on defender Eoin Downey and the attacking pair of Colin Walsh and Ben Cunningham, all who have featured at senior level this spring. The Cork team for their opening game of the 2023 campaign also included goalkeeper Brion Saunderson as a survivor from last year’s U20 team.
There are starting spots for 2021 All-Ireland minor winners Darragh O’Sullivan, James Dwyer, Mikey Finn, Diarmuid Healy and Jack Leahy.
Waterford have named an unchanged team from that which lost out 1-18 to 1-14 at the hands of Limerick last Saturday in the Fraher Field, Dungarvan.
Centre-back Mark Fitzgerald and corner-forward Patrick Fitzgerald, who scored 1-11 in last weekend’s tie, have both enjoyed senior inter-county hurling experience this year.
Limerick have made one change for their game with Clare from their success over Waterford. Monaleen’s Joseph Fitzgerald comes in at midfield as Barry Duff drops to the bench.
