Quinn up against it while O’Reilly & Flangan to reach round 2

Steven Quinn begins his singles campaign and it could have not been tougher baptism of fire. The club chairman takes on Wexford’s Paul Lambert. The Ballyhogue club already has a match under his belt the Wexford player defeated Carlow’s David Dononvan in round one. Crossakiel players already have seen Lambert in action as in last year’s Leinster Junior B doubles final Lambert and Peter Hughes defeated Crossakiel’s Eugene O’Reilly & Peter Flanagan before going onto win the All-Ireland title. Quinn will have to play something like his best form if he is going to derail the dangerous Lambert. Meanwhile in Mullingar Eugene O’Reilly & Kells man Peter Flanagan cometogether in what they will hope will be a long and successful Leinster campaign. Leinster runners-up in 2010 the duo should have enough to see of the Offaly challenge of Kevin Cooke & Sean Ryan and progress to the next round
