Sigerson Cup: Mullins aiming to put UL high on football map

Rarely does it happen that the footballers of UL outperform their hurling counterparts.

Even last year, when the university reached the Sigerson Cup semi-final for the first time since 1997, they were outshone by the hurlers who went one step better in the Fitzgibbon Cup.

It wasn’t just the hurlers who pushed them into the background, mind. UL’s ladies football and camogie teams also reached the finals of their respective competitions, once again casting the footballers as the poor relation.
