PETER Colton has been named today as the Electric Ireland Minor Footballer of the Year, while six of his talented Tyrone colleagues have also been included on the team selection.
Colton, Ronan Donnelly, Elliott Kerr, Padraig Goodman, Aodhan Quinn, James Mulgrew and Eoin Long have all been honoured for their individual performances en route to Tyrone’s dramatic All-Ireland final victory over Kerry a month ago today at Newbridge.
Fintona clubman Peter Colton has received the prestigious Footballer of the Year accolade having caught the eye of the selection committee, delivering repeatedly for the Tyrone minor team as they went on to capture the Thomas Markham Cup for the first time since 2010.
He was also hugely influential on the biggest day of all, driving home a brilliant second-half penalty and scoring a number of clutch points in a hugely dramatic win over Kerry.
