De La Salle had reached the final in two of the last three years and led 0-13 to 2-6 at the break, only for a flurry of Mount Sion scores to turn the game on its head.
Gleeson and his teammate Martin O'Neill were to the fore as Sion scored 1-9 in the opening 12 minutes of the second half, racing clear 3-15 to 0-15. Gleeson was contributing from play [popping over four points] but De La Salle made it a tight-run affair with two goals in the final 15 minutes.

Ballygunner and Passage won their quarter final clashes, on Saturday, with Lismore taking on Abbeyside on Sunday evening to determine the last of the 2020 Waterford SHC semi-finalists.
