Laois has won two Soaring Stars awards on the 2020 Camogie All-Stars Awards.
Goalkeeper Aedin Lowry of Camross is a first-time winner as is left half-back Clodagh Tynan of St Brigid s Camogie Club. The two Laois representatives were announced at the virtual Camogie Association All-Star Awards 2020 on Saturday, March 6.
The players were congratulated by Laois Camogie. Massive congratulations to Aedin Lowry and Clodagh Tynan on winning Soaring Star Awards. This is a fantastic achievement and we are super proud of them both. Laois Abú, said Laois Camogie.
Both were on the Laois team that contested that All-Ireland Intermediate semi-final in 2020. Laois lost out to Antrim last November in what was otherwise a good year for Laois Camogie.
