Ulster Colleges

[Norf Tyrone]

Delighted to report that our Club has its first college All Star this year, so I think it's a superb system.

Who was that?  Is there a list up any where?  Surprised that more from your club haven't got one when you look at some of the players that have came through and had big underage success.  Then again they were all more than likely playing Markey Cup football.

Cathal McShane won one. They aren't officially out til Monday, but a lot of chatter on twitter of cubs saying who got them. Jarlath Og Burns got one as well.

Not totally au fait with how it works, but St Colmans/ HCC only came into the Ulster Colleges stable a few years back. I am assuming in Markey Cup days they weren't eligible.

Not sure or remember why Declan McCrossan never got one.

Maghera got 2.

When you think of some of the players from St Colmans who would have been in the running, there would have been Paul Bradley, Jim Devine, Declan McCrossan and Brendan Boggs who would have all more than likely got one.

Omagh CBS in the 90's didn't perform to any great standard in the MacRory cup - and Declan wouldn't be the only great player from the school not to gather an all star. Aiden Lynch, Tony McCormack, Aiden Ball, just off the top of my head

1991 - Jimmy Campbell  - Half forward
1992 - Brian McConnell - GK
1994 - Paul Tierney corner back
1998 - Fhergal Quinn full back - CBS got to the semi final this year
1999 - Mickey McGee full back, Stephen O'Neill half forward
2000 - Paddy McMahon mid field

Interestingly Justin is the only McMahon not to get the award (aside from the youngest so far).

If I remember neither Jim nor definitely Deccy went to St Colmans... I think. Declan definitely didn't.

[Any craic]

Shea's Dad won a MacRory with Maghera in the 80s. The full of today's new 2013/14 Ulster Colleges Football All Stars with their schools & clubs are here https://www.facebook.com/jerome.quinn.7 I make it 3 for Derry, including two from Maghera and one from the Loup who's at Holy Trinity in Cookstown. Strangely enough, there's also a Monaghan lad winning an award with St Ciaran's Ballygawley and an Eglish All Star with St Patrick's Armagh, and even a Teemore lad with St Patrick's Cavan.

Deccy didn't, dunno how he got into my post there.  Jim was though.

After looking at the Macrory cup draw I fancy the 4 semi-finalists to be St. Colmans, St. Macartans,St. Michaels and Abbey CBS.
