Tommy Fitzgerald's hurlers led for much of yesterday's contest in Cusack Park.

Laois won a potentially decisive victory over Westmeath in Division 1B of the National Hurling League yesterday.

The final score was 4-18 to 1-19 in Mullingar, leaving the Lake County bottom of the division without a win.

The O'Moore County had to battle through the second half with 14 men after PJ Scully was given a red card.

Their manager Tommy Fitzgerald says he's thrilled with his side's battling qualities:

There were impressive wins for both Laois and Offaly in the Division Three of the National Football Leagues yesterday.

Laois ran out 0-23 to 0-16 winners over Sligo, while Offaly were 4-19 to 0-15 winners against Antrim.

While Westmeath suffered a third consecutive league defeat in Division Two after they lost out to Cork by the smallest possible margin in Pairc Ui Chaoimh on Saturday.
