Kilkenny Schools then had a good ten minutes where they scored 1-4 but Knockbeg then hit back through two superb scores from Ronan Curran and Dean Malone and a great goal from the impressive Ciaran Comerford which ment Knockbeg were leading 1-8 to 1-3 at half time.

Knockbeg dominated the second half scoring goal after goal with ease.
