A dominant display saw Kilkenny overcome Offaly by 2-21 to 3-9 in the 2020 Leinster minor hurling championship final at MW Hire O’Moore Park this afternoon.
The young Cats laid the foundations for victory with a blistering first-half showing that gave them a comfortable twelve-point cushion at the interval (2-13 to 1-4).
Harry Shine and Denis Walsh were on target with the winners' goals before Lochlann Quinn pulled one back for the Faithful County who improved on the resumption.
The underdogs were given hope when Luke Carey (penalty) and substitute Lee Hogan fired in further goals but Kilkenny kept the scoreboard running to set up a third consecutive All-Ireland MHC final versus holders Galway.
