Donegal picked up their second win of their Allianz Hurling League with a 5-14 to 3-16 triumph over Kerry at Letterkenny.

The men from the Kingdom led by six at the break thanks, in part, to a Oisin Maunsell goal. But the Ulster side went goal heavy in the second half as Peter Kelly, Liam McKinney and Ruairi Campbell found the net.

It moves them to four points in a congested midtable and within striking distance of leaders Down.

In Division 3, Wicklow were 4-19 to 2-13 winners over Roscommon in Bray.

The game was much closer than the scoreline suggested as the Garden County landed three goals in second half added-time from Pádraig Doyle (x2) and Torna Mulconry.

Those goals completed Doyle's hat-trick, after he had given the Leinster outfit an ideal start with a major inside five minutes.

The gap was nine at one stage but the Rossies had drawn level inside 15 minutes of the restart before Wicklow's strong finish.

Meanwhile in Division 4, Louth and Leitrim played out a 0-13 to 1-10 draw, the first time the Wee County have dropped points in their campaign.

The weather on Sunday saw the Division 2 clash of Meath and Trim, as well as the Division 3 meeting of Cavan and Armagh, postponed.
