Marian Kearns is a former camogie player, one of the stars of Antrim's 1956 All Ireland Camogie Championship winning team.

She scored the winning goal for Antrim against Dublin in the 1956 All Ireland semi-final with what was described as “a magnificent cross-shot which caught the defence out of position and their goalkeeper unsighted.” This was Dublin’s only defeat in an otherwise 19-year unbeaten run.
