But Pegasus ladies went down 1-0 to Cork Harlequins in the semi-final of the knock out competition at the Dub yesterday.

Pegasus had two penalty corners late in the first-half and Cork keeper Lorna Bateman denied Stephanie Thompson from one of them.

Quins grabbed the vital goal in the 56th minute when Emma Barber drove the ball low into the net from a corner to earn a date with Loreto after the Dublin side beat Railway Union on penalties after a 0-0 draw.

Meanwhile, Ards are back in relegation trouble after losing their EY Irish Hockey League basement battle 2-1 to Muckross at Londonderry Park on Saturday.
