Two awards for Waterford goalkeepers on the one weekend is a rare and wonderful feat. On Saturday, Lismore camogie keeper Aisling O'Brien held out against Newmarket in a low scoring Munster Intermediate final replay at Lattin-Cullen. Second half saves from Jenny Kelly and Niki Kaiser kept them on track for a third provincial crown in four years. Passage stopper Eddie Lynch performed five fantastic saves to capture the TG4 award in an unsuccessful Munster semi final trip to the Gaelic Grounds. This included two spectacular diving saves to deny David Dempsey and Kieran Kennedy. The 22 year old has acted as first choice for the seniors since 2010. He kept his third clean sheet of a fairytale nine game season on Sunday.
