LEITRIM, CLARE, ANTRIM and Tipperary all came out on top in Division 4 of the Allianz League today.
Antrim picked up their first win of the campaign, easily overcoming Waterford 1-17 to 0-6.
The game was effectively over by half-time, with Liam Bradley’s side establishing a 0-11 to 0-2 half-time lead, with CJ McGourty among the scorers.
A second-half Paddy Cunningham goal put the game beyond all doubt, as the Saffrons secured a comprehensive 14-point victory over their hapless opponents.
Meanwhile, Clare overcame Wicklow 2-13 to 1-8 at Cusack Park today.
After the game started evenly enough with both sides registering 0-4, a Gary Brennan goal on 23 minutes gave his side the advantage.
Wicklow responded well with two points however, meaning Clare held a slender one-point lead going in at the break.
The Banner County upped their performance after the break though, with another goal from Brennan helping them to establish a sizeable 2-10 to 0-8 lead.
James Stafford then found the net for Wicklow 31 minutes into the second half, however it proved to be little more than a consolation, as Clare earned what was ultimately a comfortable victory.
(A Barry Grogan goal helped Tipperary to prevail this afternoon)
Elsewhere, Tipperary overcame London 1-19 to 1-7 in Ruislip.
The visitors stormed into a 1-8 to 0-2 half-time lead, as Barry Grogan’s penalty after a foul on Brian Fox helped them gain a significant advantage.
The hosts showed some fight in the second period, producing a respectable 1-5 after the break, however they were ultimately outclassed by a superior Tipperary outfit on the day.
Finally, in Páirc Sean Mac Diarmada, a relatively low-scoring first-half saw Leitrim take a 0-8 to 0-4 lead over Carlow, with Barry McWeeney, James Glancy and Emlyn Mulligan among the scorers.
Seamus Kinsella got the first point of the second half for Carlow, but they were dealt a blow shortly thereafter, as Mark Brennan was sent off.
The red card proved the catalyst for Leitrim to fully establish their dominance, with further points from Mulligan, Glancy and Wayne McKeon putting their side into a seemingly unassailable eight-point lead.
A Seamus Kinsella goal reduced the deficit, however Glancy was on hand to wrap up their victory, with a well-taken goal in the dying stages, as Leitrim secured a 1-17 to 1-8 victory.
