Killererin’s Keane sets his sights on elusive provincial medal

KILLERERIN’S Alan Keane will bid to add to his impressive gaelic football CV in tomorrow’s Connacht club SFC final against Roscommon champions St Brigid’s.

Keane was Galway goalkeeper in 2001 when the county last enjoyed All-Ireland senior success. It was a cinderella season for him, coming into the team after their heavy defeat to Roscommon in the Connacht championship before collecting a Celtic Cross during his debut campaign.

At club level, Keane, a garda by profession, has four county senior medals since 1999 and now wants to add a provincial medal to that collection this weekend.
