The Waterford senior camogie side made it four wins on the bounce in Division 1B of the National League this afternoon with victory away to Antrim in Creggan.

Sean Power's side made the lengthy trip up north having earlier seen off Offaly, Wexford and Limerick in the campaign.

The Deise made a bright start hitting four points without response while a tremendous block from Niamh Curran set the early tone.

Lorraine Bray, Beth Carton and co. were to the fore throughout as despite playing against a strong breeze, Waterford went into the halftime break 0-10 to 0-4 ahead.

Conditions in Creggan were cold and wet and worsened as the afternoon went on, but the Deise ultimately prevailed on a scoreline of 0-15 to 1-7, thus booking their place in the league final.

The Deise have one remaining group game at home to Down on Saturday March 25th with the final to be played on April 9th.

Meanwhile, St. Augustine's College Dungarvan suffered a heartbreaking loss in their All-Ireland Junior D Schools Final replay today.

The Friary lost out by 1-08 to 2-4 to Convent of Mercy Roscommon, despite Mischa Lyons and Chloe Hearne hitting the net.
