Seven players in the Intermediate Championship have got their personal tallies into double figures after the quarter finals.
Leading the pack is Belleek man Sean McCreesh, who was also joint top scorer with Eddie Mallon after the opening round.
Belleek’s draw with Forkhill in round one meant that McCreesh had an extra game to build on his scoring tally.
Across those two outings with Forkhill and Sunday’s last eight clash with Tullysaran, McCreesh has accumulated a total of 0-26.
The left footed free taker top scored for Belleek in all three of those games and hit 0-9 last Saturday evening as they crashed out of the competition.
