Feakle's Adam Hogan named Electric Ireland GAA Higher Education Hurling Player of the Year
The Clare man was one of seven on Mary Immaculate College's Fitzgibbon Cup winning team to win a Rising Star award
Clare's Adam Hogan has been honoured as the Electric Ireland Higher Education GAA Hurling Player Of The Year award.
The Feakle defender picked up the award at the Electric Ireland Rising Stars event at the Castleknock Hotel, Dublin on Monday, April 1.
Adam was also named on the 2024 Electric Ireland GAA Higher Education Rising Stars Hurling Team of the Year, along with seven of his Mary Immaculate College Limerick (MICL) teammates, who overcome a strong University of Limerick (UL) side in the final of this year's Fitzgibbon Cup.
MICL, who are managed and coached by famous family duo Jamie Wall and Podge Collins, triumphed to a third Fitzgibbon Cup title in their history, all of which have come since 2016.
Among Adam's fellow Clare men named on the Rising Stars Fitzgibbon Cup Team of the Year are Diarmuid Ryan (MICL, Cratloe & Clare), Shane Meehan (MICL, Banner & Clare), and Mark Rodgers (University of Limerick, Scariff & Clare).
Speaking after the award ceremony, Adam said he was "really shocked" to win.
"It was a great honour for my club and my family, especially my family I suppose for the work they've put in," he said.
