Club: Raheny bow out, controversy rages in Longford

All-Ireland champions St Thomas' struck a goal deep in injury-time to secure a draw against Gort, who were eliminated from the Galway SHC.

St Thomas', who beat O'Loughlin Gaels in January's All-Ireland final, trailed 0-21 to 0-18 deep in injury time until Eanna Burke found Damien McGlynn with a clever pass and the corner forward fired home the game's only goal.

The result means that Killimordaly survive in the group despite their heavy defeat to group winners Tommy Larkin's, the Woodford side - which contains Galway attacker Jason Flynn - defeating St Thomas' a fortnight ago.

Gort exit the championship in agonising fashion, while St Thomas', pursuing a seventh title in a row in Galway, progress to the preliminary quarter-finals, where they face Craughwell.

Last year's Galway finalists Turlougmore progressed directly to the quarters after a third win from three, dispatching Kilconeiron by 13 points.

Loughrea will join them there after overcoming Micheál Donoghue's Clarinbridge 3-18 to 1-18 in a top of the table clash in Group 3, the latter bound for the preliminary quarters, where they face Rahoon-Newcastle.

In the Cork Premier Senior Hurling Championship, last year's finalists Midleton overcame Erin's Own in Páirc Uí Rinn to top Group 2 and set up a quarter-final meeting with Newtownshandrum.

Conor Lehane was the star man for the eight-time Cork champions, hitting 0-14 in total and six from play as they saw off Erin's Own by 0-23 to 1-17. They now face Newtownshandrum in the quarters, the 2004 All-Ireland champions overcoming Douglas in a do-or-die shootout game in Group 1, winning 2-17 to 0-19.

Reigning champions Sarsfields progressed straight to the semi-finals after topping Group A, dispatching Bishopstown by 15 points on
