MAYO MINOR BOSS Damien Gavin has named his side for the Connacht quarter-final against Galway on Sunday.
The Tribesmen defeated Mayo in last year’s provincial final, but Mayo return with a number of survivors from that defeat including Stephen McGreal, Tommy Conroy & Nathan Moran.
Moran starts at centre-forward, fresh from skippering Ballinrobe Community School to the Post Primary Schools All-Ireland ‘B’ title in Croke Park on April 1. Corner-back Oran O’Malley also featured for Ballinrobe in that victory.
Gavin Durcan, cousin of Mayo senior Paddy, anchors the defence from centre-back.
