The semi-finals of our 2018 Galway Daily under 21 Hurler of the Year competition closed last night (Tuesday) as the nine contenders were whittled down to the final four.
Captain Fintan Burke topped the poll with 73% followed by Sean Loftus (64%), Sean Bleahene (43%) and Thomas Monaghan (39%).
The winners from each group advanced to the final which takes place today (Wednesday). They are joined by the best runner-up (Monaghan).
Some of those unfortunate to be eliminated included Cianan Fahy, Jack Fitzpatrick, Evan Niland and Kevin Cooney.
