As well as claiming her second All Ireland medal with The Dubs, on a personal level, Noelle put in a Player of the Match performance in the final, was awarded her third All Star and the accolade of Player’s Player of the Year, and has just been announced as a nominee for RTÉ’s Sportsperson of the Year.
