AUDIO: Midleton Management Await MRI Result On Conor Lehane Injury
Midleton are anxiously awaiting the results of an MRI scan today, to ascertain the availability of Conor Lehane in Sundays County Senior Hurling Championship Semi Final against Glen Rovers.
The inter-county forward suffered a grade 3 rupture of the rectus femoris (the quad muscle) during a challenge game earlier in the championship.
It looked to rule him out of the remainder of the season, but Manager Jerry Wallace explains that efforts to speed up the recovery have proven very successful and Lehane is expected to be named in the 26 man panel.
Click PLAY below to hear Wallace discuss Lehane's progress.
Tune in to The Big Red Bench on Saturday from 6pm for more previews of the Championship Semi Finals also featuring Holders Sarsfields versus Erins Own, while we'll have all the reaction from both matches on The Bench on Sunday from 6pm.
