In February 2019 Queen's GAA celebrated the 60th anniversary of its first Sigerson Cup triumph. It was the first time that cup had visited Ulster as Queen's defeated perennial contenders UCD. We recorded a conversation with many of the key protagonists, including captain Hugh O'Kane, the great Sean O'Neill, and Derry legend Tom Scullion who scored the winning point in the replayed final. The Queen's team that year was: Seán O’Kane, Peter Smith (Derry), Christy Mallon (RIP) (Tyrone), Phil Stuart (Derry), Seán O'Neill (Down), Patsy McDonald, Séamus McMahon, Henry McRory John O’Neill, Tom Scullion (Derry), Barney McNally, Paddy McGuckian, Mick Brewster (RIP) (Fermanagh), Frank Higgins, Gerry O’Neill (Derry), Charlie Murphy, Leo O’Neill (Derry), Eamonn Flanigan Dessie O’Rourke, Kevin Halpenny, Paddy O’Hara (Manager, RIP) (Antrim), Hugh O’Kane (Captain), Dr John Macaulay (RIP), Seamus Mallon, Brendan Donaghy.

With the O'Connor Cup semi-final this Friday, we chat to coaches, players, and administrators from across the HEC.

As a long January draws to a close, we bring news from the Donaghy and Purcell Cups, as well as the Intermediate football championship. Limerick man Pat Ryan then sits down with Conor to talk all things hurling. 

We look back on a tough few days at Upper Malone as we exit the 2019 Sigerson Cup at the hands of NUIG. Conor looks back on the game with Aidan O'Rourke before manager Shane Mulholland gives a candid review of the season.
