Kilkenny CBS manager Seamus Dwyer says this is a great time for the college side.

As the James Street lads prepare to lock horns with Nenagh CBS in Saturday's All-Ireland senior colleges hurling final, Dwyer comments in the Kilkenny People:

"This is a great time for the school. It is fantastic to be back in the All-Ireland final.

"We consider ourselves to be one of the top hurling schools in the country. The All-Ireland final is where we want to be.

"Players from eleven different clubs are involved. It is so unusual to be part of such a team. It rarely happens outside the intercounty scene.

"This team hasn't won anything. This is the chance for the CBS to step out of the shadows.

"We have been in four or five Leinster finals out of the last seven or eight. We are not winning enough of them.

"These lads are ready. I think our time has come. There will be no regrets."
