In Navan, Summerhill were made come from behind to earn a 2-22 to 1-16 victory against Killoe Young Emmets of Longford.
The scores of Paddy Kiernan and Paddy Morgan helped Killoe get out to a 0-6 to 0-3 lead and they’d move four in front ahead of Conor Frayne getting one back to stem the tide for Summerhill.
The next attack would spell disaster for the Meath champions however, with Larry Moran palming to their net to make it a six-point game.
The hosts’ skipper Eoghan Frayne responded with a point ahead of firing to the net in the 27th minute, as Killoe’s lead was cut to the minimum (1-11 to 1-10) come half-time.
Kevin Ryan squared the sides a minute into the restart and Summerhill pulled clear from there, with an Eoghan Frayne two-pointer and a Sean Muddiman ‘45’ being followed up by an Adam Flanagan goal.
After that, the scores of Adam McDonnell, Conor Lyons, Eoghan Frayne (2) and Liam Shaw were more than enough to secure a provincial quarter-final berth for Dave Clare’s men.
