Alan Mangan reflects on county success and player development.
Alan Mangan is praising his Castletown Geoghegan's hurlers after exceeding expectations this season.
The Westmeath team claimed their fourteenth county title against Clonkill after three final defeats in a row.
The Lake County side saw their Leinster Championship run ended by reigning champions Ballyhale Shamrocks in the Quarter Finals.
Mangan says the defeat was a great learning curve for his younger players:
