Early start for hurlers on Sunday

Meath hurlers will make an early departure on Sunday for a crucial NHL Div 2B 12.45pm throw-in against Armagh at the Athletic Grounds in a fourth round tie.

Meath need to keep winning to make it to the decider as they are one of three teams (Armagh and Down are the others) on four points with the top two to qualify for the final.

Mayo are the only team in the group with three wins from three games so they can clinch a place in the final if they beat Wicklow on Sunday.

Wicklow are still looking for their first win. Meath, Down and Armagh are all on four points and Down will be expecting to tally a big score against Donegal.
