Kevin Horan made Life Member at SPC
Marist St Pats Life Member and club legend Kevin Horan was made a Life Member of the St Patrick's College Rugby Club on 27 June 2013. From the College rugby newsletter:
Kevin started his rugby career when he started school at Marist Brothers. He played for the SPC 1XV in 1964 and 1965 and after leaving College joined Marist St. Pat's where he went on to play over 200 games; he was part of the first MSP team to win the Jubilee Cup. Kevin played 100 games for Wellington between 1971 and 1980, captaining Wellington in 1980.
He was Assistant Coach of the 1XV from 1989 to 1990 and Head Coach in 1991. As was noted by Mike Woods in the 1991 edition of "The Patrician", it's appropriate to pay tribute to Kevin Horan for his time with the 1XV and to whom much of the team's success is due. In the three years that Kevin has been involved with the team, they have re-written the College history books in terms of college victories."
Developing a culture of camaraderie, honesty and true sense of unity have been key to his many successes. Playing for your family name, your school, your club and for yourself were always part of his motivational talks.
