Laura Treacy enjoying Cork camogie

Laura Treacy may be inexperienced when it comes to top-flight camogie but the 20-year-old has a wise head on those young shoulders.

It explains why Cork manager, Paudie Murray has entrusted the vital No 3 jersey to the young Inch woman this year, following an eye-catching season at corner-back that ended with an All-Ireland medal and an All-Star nomination.

Treacy is less than a fortnight away from second year general nursing exams at Waterford IT but insists on maintaining her level of training and playing, recognising the benefits to her academic life.
