Marian Kearns is a former camogie player, one of the stars of Antrim's 1956 All Ireland Camogie Championship winning team.[1]
Career
She scored the winning goal for Antrim against Dublin in the 1956 All Ireland semi-final with what was described as “a magnificent cross-shot which caught the defence out of position and their goalkeeper unsighted.” This was Dublin's only defeat in an otherwise 19-year unbeaten run.
