Daniel Joseph Moylan (22 November 1915 – 20 February 1992), known as Cooper Moylan, was an Irish hurler who played for Cork Senior Championship club Glen Rovers. He was also a member of the Cork senior hurling team at various times and usually lined out as a forward.
Career
Moylan first came to prominence as a hurler during his schooldays at the North Monastery. He was on "the Mon" Harty Cup-winning teams in 1934 and 1935. At club level Moylan was one of the stalwarts of the Glen Rovers team and won seven consecutive County Senior Championship titles.[1] He also enjoyed championship success with the St. Nicholas' club as a Gaelic footballer.[2] After an unsuccessful one-year tenure with the Cork minor hurling team in 1933, Moylan joined the senior team in 1938.[3] His three seasons with the team saw him win two National League titles and a Munster Championship medal as a reserve. Moylan was also a non-playing reserve when Cork were beaten by Kilkenny in the 1939 All-Ireland final.[4]
Personal life and death
Moylan was born in Dillon's Cross, Cork, the third child of Edward and Agnes Moylan (née King). The son of a waiter, he later worked as a shop assistant. Moylan married Esther Byrne in November 1943 and had four children.
Moylan died after a period of illness at Marymount Hospice in Cork on 20 February 1992.[5]
