Career

edit

O'Sullivan played hurling at all grades as a student at Coláiste an Spioraid Naoimh in Bishopstown. He later lined out with MTU Cork in the Fitzgibbon Cup and was named on the Team of the Year in 2025.[1] At club level, O'Sullivan played with Ballinhassig.[2]

At inter-county level, O'Sullivan first appeared for Cork as a member of the minor team. He was corner-back when the team won the All-Ireland MHC title after a 1–23 to 0–12 defeat of Galway in the 2021 All-Ireland MHC final.[3] O'Sullivan immediately progressed to the under-20 team and added an All-Ireland U20HC title to his collection after lining out at wing-forward in the 2–22 to 3–13 defeat of Offaly in the 2023 All-Ireland U20 final.[4]

O'Sullivan was added to the senior team in 2025 and was part of the panel when Cork won the National Hurling League title that year.[5][6]
