Considered Tyrone's greatest ever hurler, Damian Casey had helped his home county to Nicky Rackard Cup glory only last month… Mr Casey first lined-out for the Tyrone seniors in 2012. The full-forward started his county's first game that season and amazingly he started every game for Tyrone since then—100 outings in total.
