Eight teams contested the 1962 championship: Brownstown, Castlepollard, Castletown Geoghegan, Clonkill, Cullion, Pearses, Raharney, and Rickardstown. Castlepollard entered as the defending champions, defeating Clonkill-Delvin amalgamation side St. Patrick's, but were eliminated in the semi-final stage. The final was played on August 26, at Cusack Park in Mullingar between Pearses and Raharney. Pearses were contesting their first ever Senior final, while Raharney bridged a 37-year gap since their last appearance in a losing effort in 1925. Pearses won the match by 2-9 to 3-5 to claim their first and only title, before disbanding in 1969.https://hoganstand.com/Westmeath/ClubTitles HoganStand GAA Football and Hurling hoganstand.comhttps://www.westmeathexaminer.ie/2022/09/14/sixty-years-since-pearses-ruled-the-roost-in-westmeath-hurling/ Sixty years since Pearses ruled the roost in Westmeath hurling 14 September 2022 Westmeath Examiner Results no Quarter Final Castletown Geoghegan 5-9 Rickardstown 5-3 Pearses 2-12 Clonkill 4-4 Raharney 3-5 Cullion 2-5 Castlepollard 14-9 Brownstown 1-1 Semi Final Pearses 2-13 Castletown Geoghegan 4-6 Raharney 7-6 Castlepollard 3-5 Final Pearses 2-9 Raharney 3-5 Fixtures Jul 15 Quarter-Final Castletown Geoghegan 5-9 - 5-3 Rickardstown Cusack Park Jul 22 Quarter-Final Raharney 3-5 - 2-5 Cullion Cusack Park Jul 29 Quarter-Final Pearses 2-12 - 4-4 Clonkill Collinstown Aug 5 Quarter-Final Castlepollard 14-9 - 1-1 Brownstown Collinstown Aug 12 Semi-Final Pearses 2-13 - 4-6 Castletown Geoghegan Cusack Park Aug 12 Semi-Final Raharney 7-6 - 3-5 Castlepollard Cusack Park Aug 26 Final Pearses 2-9 - 3-5 Raharney J Carey (0-8), T Houlihan (1-1), F Newman (1-0) B Shiels (1-1), P Collins (1-0), K McLoughlin (1-0), M Gartland (0-2), J Rooney (0-2) Cusack Park T Mooney References Category:Westmeath Senior Hurling Championship Category:1962 senior hurling county championships Category:1962 in hurling
