Kevin Moran (born 3 March 1987) is an Irish hurler who currently plays as a centre back for the Waterford senior team.
Moran made his first appearance for the team during the 2006 championship and became a regular member of the starting fifteen over the following few seasons. Since then he has won two Munster winners' medals, one National League winners' medal as a non-playing substitute and one All-Star award. Moran has ended up as an All-Ireland runner-up on one occasion.
At club level Moran is a two-time Munster medalist with De La Salle. In addition to this he has also won three county club championship winners' medals.
Moran plays his club hurling with the De La Salle club and has enjoyed much success.
He was still a minor when he made his senior debut as a seventeen-year-old in 2004, however, he quickly became a key member of the De La Salle team. In 2005 Moran lined out in his first championship decider as De La Salle faced Ballygunner. A narrow 2-10 to 1-12 defeat was Moran's lot on that occasion.
After a number of years of early exits in the county championship, De La Salle reached the championship final again in 2008. Abbeyside were the opponents on that occasion and a close game developed. At the final whistle De La Salle were the champions by 0-11 to 0-9 and Moran collected his first county championship medal. De La Salle subsequently represented Waterford in the provincial series and even reached the final. A narrow 1-9 to 0-10 defeat of Adare gave Moran a first Munster medal. Moran's side later reached the All-Ireland decider where Portumna provided the opposition. De La Salle were well beaten on that occasion by 2-24 to 1-8.
