He finished with a tally of 1-7, including a screamer of a goal and some tremendous points off either foot. And his team still lost. Keep an eye out for Conor McKenna in the future.
McKenna, who played a starring role for the Tyrone minors en route to the All-Ireland Final last year, including man of the match performances in the Ulster Final and the All-Ireland semi-final and a goal against Mayo in the final, was on fire for St. Pat’s Armagh in their MacRory Cup clash with St Patrick’s Academy yesterday.
A brother of Tyrone senior star Ryan, McKenna put over some amazing scores with both feet from play and from placed balls and capped it all with a quite brilliant goal in the second half as he posted 1-7 out of his side’s overall tally of 2-11 in Cookstown.
Unfortunately for Conor, his side ended up losing out by five points but he can reflect on a quite outstanding personal display that surely would have made followers of Gaelic Football in Ulster stand up and take notice.
And the most frightening part of it all? He’s minor again this year. Remember the name folks.
