Kilcoo qualified for their eight Down SFC final in 10 years last night.
The holders overcame the challenge of Warrenpoint by 1-13 to 2-6 in Pairc Esler to set up a final date with Burren - a repeat of last year's Frank O'Hare Cup decider.
They led by 0-8 to 1-3 at the halfway stage and Ceilum Doherty’s second-half goal proved decisive against a Warrenpoint side that finished with 13 men following the dismissals of Ryan Boyle and Ryan Magee on second yellows.
Goalkeeper Niall Kane sent over five points for the winners.
