NHL DIVISION TWO: Antrim 0-15 Limerick 4-15:LIMERICK KEPT their 100 per cent league record intact at Loughgiel yesterday where they had too much firepower for Antrim.

Donal O’Grady’s side had already secured a place in the league final but there was no complacency in their ranks. They led by 1-10 to 0-6 at the break, the goal coming courtesy of Kevin Downes.

Any hopes of an Antrim revival were killed off early in the second half by a Seán Tobin goal.
