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 put an end to Dublin's unbeaten run of nineteen years.
