Denis Mulcahy
Denis Mulcahy (born 15 August 1956) is an Irish retired hurler who played as a right corner-back for the Cork senior team.
Born in Midleton, County Cork, Mulcahy first played competitive hurling during his schooling at Midleton CBS. He arrived on the inter-county scene at the age of twenty when he first linked up with the Cork under-21 team. He made his senior debut during the 1980-81 league. Mulcahy subsequently became a regular member of the starting fifteen and won two All-Ireland medals, four Munster medals and one National Hurling League medal. He was an All-Ireland runner-up on one occasion.
As a member of the Munster inter-provincial team on a number of occasions, Mulcahy won one Railway Cup medal as a non-playing substitute. At club level he is a one-time All-Ireland medallist with Midleton. In addition to this he has also won two Munster medals and four championship medals.
Throughout his career Mulcahy made 24 championship appearances. His retirement came following the conclusion of the 1992 championship.
After some success at underage levels, culminating in the winning of an East Cork minor championship in 1972, Mulcahy subsequently joined the Midleton intermediate team. In 1978 he enjoyed his first major success when he captured a championship medal in the intermediate grade as Midleton defeated Newtownshandrum by 1-12 to 1-10.
Five years later Mulcahy was left corner-back of the Midleton senior team that bridged a forty-five year gap to qualify for the championship decider. The opponents, St. Finbarr's, were appearing in their fifth successive decider and were hoping to secure fourth championship in-a-row. A 1-18 to 2-9 victory gave Midleton their first title since 1916, while Mulcahy collected his first championship medal. He later collected a Munster medal following a 1-14 to 1-11 defeat of Borris-Ileigh in the provincial decider.
Two-in-a-row proved beyond Midleton, while the club also lost the decider to Blackrock in 1985. The following year Midleton were back in the decider and Mulcahy collected a second championship medal as the club secured a 1-18 to 1-10 defeat of Blackrock.
In 1987 Midleton faced Na Piarsaigh in the championship decider. An exciting 2-12 to 0-15 victory gave Mulcahy a third championship medal. He later won a second Munster medal as Cappawhite were accounted for by 1-12 to 1-11 in the provincial decider. On 17 March 1988 Midleton faced Athenry in the All-Ireland decider and a close game developed. Two early goals by Kevin Hennessy and a kicked goal by Colm O'Neill gave Midleton a 3–8 to 0–9 victory and gave Mulcahy an All-Ireland Senior Club Hurling Championship medal.
