Donegal inflicted what may well be a record defeat on Down in yesterday's Ulster senior ladies football quarter-final at Brewster Park.

Runners-up to Armagh in last month's National League Division 2 final, the Tir Chonaill women look like they mean business in the championship after dishing out a 10-35 to 0-4 defeat to the hapless Mourne County. That's a whopping 61 points!

Yvonne McMonagle bagged half a dozen goals in the rout, five of which came in a first half that ended with Donegal perched on a 7-17 to 0-3 lead.

Donegal's semi-final opponents will be Tyrone, who beat Cavan 1-12 to 0-14 after extra-time in yesterday's opening game at Brewster Park. Holders Armagh will face Monaghan in the other semi-final.
