Three of the four Galway SHC semi-final spots were filled at the weekend.

Kevin Cooney's goal proved decisive as 2015 champions Sarsfields secured their place in the last four with a 1-12 to 0-13 victory over Castlegar in Kenny Park. Meanwhile, Alan Dolan hit nine points for Cappataggle in their 1-15 to 0-17 quarter-final win over Loughrea. Donal Ryan scored the Cappy goal in the opening minute.

Tom Callanan Cup holders Liam Mellows were 2-16 to 0-16 winners over Tynagh-Abbey/Duniry with Enda Fallon and Conor Kavanagh getting the goals.

The last quarter-final will be contested by St Thomas and Clarinbridge after the latter sent Gort packing on a 3-18 to 1-19 scoreline. Evan Niland accounted for 0-10 of Clarinbridge's tally, while Cian Salmon, Stephen Forde and Mark Kennedy raised their green flags.
