UUJ, Cork IT, Queen's and Sligo IT will contest the semi-finals of the Sigerson Cup after coming through their respective quarter-finals this afternoon.

Jordanstown, who knocked out holders DCU in the previous round, claimed another impressive scalp in overcoming NUI Galway 2-11 to 0-9 at Mullahoran.

First-half goals from Patrick Cunningham and Raymond Mulgrew set UUJ on their way and they were never troubled by the Galway college who could only manage three points after the break.

Sligo edged the Garda Training College 1-10 to 0-9 at Templemore, a Colm Boyle goal five minutes from time effectively sealing the win, while Queen's claimed a 1-12 to 2-5 win over UCD at Belfield.

Cork IT claimed the final berth in the last four with a comfortable 2-15 to 0-10 win over Maynooth.
