Holders Ratoath were knocked out of the Meath U21 hurling championship at the semi final stage by na Fianna at the Meath GAA Centre of Excellence.

Na Fianna 2-16 Ratoath 2-15

Jack McGowan’s charges were first out of the trap with a point in the first minute, in an exciting but ultimately frustrating game against Na Fianna. In a game of nip and tuck Na Fianna were dominating in the first half leading by three points but at half time it was level - Ratoath 1-7 Na Fianna 0-10 

In the second half Na Fianna began to dominate but the boys in blue never gave up and continued to pile on the pressure. Cian  Rogers struck the net following a penalty for a foul on Daithi McGowan in the 25th minute followed by two more pointed frees from Rogers but ultimately Ratoath were beaten by the smallest of margins 2-16 to 2-15.
