Mayo claimed their first Allianz Division 2B Hurling League success, while Westmeath and Carlow await a pitch inspection to see if their Division 2A decider will take place tomorrow. Kenny Feeney fired 11 points as a Division 2B silverware made its way to a Connacht county for the first time with a 1-15 to 0-14 win at Kingspan Breffni Park. Down were 3-19 to 0-14 winners over Mayo in their final group game last weekend, but with Mayo already through, they decided they fielded a somewhat weakened side for that encounter. Feeney was Mayo's lone scorer in the opening minutes, but his side came good as the Mayo free-takers form improved. Meanwhile, the Allianz Division 2A Hurling League Final between Carlow and Westmeath was one of a number of games to fall victim to the snowy weather.
