Just four days after scoring all but one point for Rathmore as they won the Kerry Junior Hurling Championship title, Luke Crowley was the star player for Glenflesk in their Kerry Intermediate Football Championship victory over Fossa.
Luke, who played at U20 level for the Kingdom this season, is the son of three-time Kerry All-Ireland winner Johnny who also played football for Glenflesk.
On Sunday, Crowley hit 1-3 as his side beat Fossa - All-Ireland junior champions last year and the side of David and Paudie Clifford - by 4-12 to 0-20. Crowley scored the opening goal of the game, which was shown live on Clubber TV, in the eighth minute.

It was a game which ebbed and flowed throughout the 60-plus minutes and was level nearly six minutes into injury time when Darragh Roche and Crowley combined to turn over the ball and set up Daniel O'Brien who fisted Glenflesk ahead.
Seconds later, Fossa's hopes of getting something from the game where ended when goalkeeper Shane O'Sullivan slipped as he took a kickout and Brian O'Donoghue lobbed the ball over him and into the net to put his side ahead by four points.

The victory meant that Glenflesk, who also defeated An Ghaeltacht and St Mary's Cahersiveen, topped the group. They will play Austin Stacks, county champions just two years ago, in the quarter-finals. Fossa, who finished second, will play Castleisland Desmonds in the last eight.
On Wednesday evening, Crowley scored 14 points for Glenflesk's neighbours Rathmore as they beat a St Brendan's Ardfert side 0-15 to 1-9 to claim that junior hurling title. Seven of his points came from play.
