A SENSATIONAL 1-15 without reply after a very sluggish start saw Offaly steamroll their way into the Leinster Minor Hurling Championship semi-final in Newbridge today.
Westmeath s shock win over Dublin means Offaly play them next Sunday in the Leinster minor hurling semi final, probably in Mullingar.
Offaly 1-18
Kildare 0-9
