Sligo County
Committee was saddened to learn of the death of Edward 'Ned' McMunn,
Cumann Baile Easa Dara, who was one of six players to have the
distinction of winning four Senior Championship medals in a row in the early
60s. He is best remembered for his performance in an epic encounter with Mayo
in 1962, which went to a replay. The Yeats men were eventually to progress to
play Roscommon but were defeated by a point when the Rossies scored a
fortuitous goal in the dying minutes of the game. Roscommon went on to contest
the All Ireland final when they were defeated by Kerry.
