Cratloe have booked a county senior hurling semi final place after an 18 point to 8 win over Broadford this afternoon in Cusack Park.
The South east Clare side led at half time by 10 points to 5 in a game where their superior firepower and pace led to difficulties in the Broadford defense.
Despite getting the opening score of the second period Broadford could not stage a fightback and Cratloe now go forward to a meeting with Kilmaley next weekend.
