Ned Cregan

Edmond "Ned" Cregan (25 January 1901 – 23 August 1972) was an Irish hurler who played as a left wing-forward for the Limerick senior team.

Cregan played his club hurling with Newcastle West and enjoyed some success during a career that spanned three decades.

The game was a close one; however, Kilkenny sealed the victory with a great solo-run goal by Johnny Dunne in the last ten minutes.

Points from Mick Mackey and Jackie O'Connell and a fourth goal from Dave Clohessy secured a 5-2 to 2-6 victory for Limerick and an All-Ireland medal for Cregan.

Cregan captured a second consecutive National League medal in 1935 before Limerick completely powered their way through the provincial series of games.

Limerick were the red-hot favourites as they were the reigning National League and All-Ireland champions and had played a remarkable 31 games without defeat.

Mick Mackey smashed a free to the net, however, his final attack to secure a win was foiled by Paddy Larkin.
