Farragher raising sights

AIB CONNACHT SFC CLUB FINAL:

And tomorrow the GMIT engineering student bids for another accolade as he captains Corofin from centre-forward in their quest for a Connacht club title against Mayo’s Ballintubber at McHale Park.

A past pupil of St Jarlath’s College in Tuam, Michael headed to Australia in 2011 after winning an All-Ireland U21 medal under Alan Mulholland’s guidance along with Corofin team-mate, Ronan Steede, to try out with Grovedale Tigers, a feeder club to AFL giants, Geelong. While he enjoyed that entire experience, he badly missed home and was keen to return home to his first love. Gaelic football with Corofin.
