His league and championship career at senior level with the Offaly and Mayo county teams spanned fifteen seasons from 1971 to 1985.
Lowry made his debut on the inter-county scene at the age of seventeen when he was selected for the Offaly minor team.
By this stage he had also joined the Offaly senior team, after being added to the extended panel during the 1971 championship.
Over the course of the next fourteen years, Lowry won three All-Ireland medals, beginning with back-to-back championships in 1971 and 1972, and a final victory in 1982.
