THERE WERE WINS for Dublin IT and Dublin City University in tonight’s Fitzgibbon Cup games.

In Group C, DCU secured their place in the quarter-finals of the competition, as they comprehensively beat Garda College 2-22 to 0-8 on home turf, making it two wins from two in the process as they defeated Limerick IT last Sunday.

Meanwhile, in a more closely fought encounter in Group B, DIT overcame Waterford IT 3-19 to 1-19.

DIT previously lost their first game against the University of Limerick.

The last round-robin game will see Waterford IT play UL on Thursday, 1 February, while Garda College take on LIT on the same date.

Cold evening here in Grangegorman for the #FitzgibbonCup clash between @DITGAA & @WaterfordIT, with the hosts leading 1-13 to 1-10 at the break.

Waterford will hurl with the aid of the breeze in the 2nd half. Not sure if DIT have enough done 🤷🏼‍♂️ #Allianz #Gaa ↓↓↓ pic.twitter.com/IF6h0zNII8
