The Galway Minor Hurlers made history on Friday evening in Portlaoise in winning the Leinster title for the very first time at the first time of asking.
Jason Rabbitte and Brian Callanan got the goals for a Galway team that will now go on to meet Cork in the All-Ireland semi-finals next weekend with Kilkenny and Clare meeting in the other last four clash.
As well as Rabbitte and Callanan, it was also Aaron Niland (brother of Galway star Evan) that really stood out as he scored 0-11 in a fine individual display.
Here is another opportunity to hear the commentary of that historic night with Niall Canavan and Gordon Duane.
