Playing career
editBorn in Ballincollig, Hallihan first played hurling as a member of the local club.[1] His prowess at club level earned a call-up to the Cork senior hurling team for the 1901 Munster Championship and collected a winners' medal after victory over Clare. Hallihan later lined out when Cork suffered a defeat by London in the 1901 All-Ireland final.[2] He won a second successive Munster Championship medal in 1902, but was not included on the team for their subsequent success in the 1902 All-Ireland final. Hallihan was recalled to the team for a brief appearance in the first round of the 1905 Munster Championship.
