[edit] Playing career
Frank Lohan won his first Munster Senior Hurling Championship in 1995, as Clare defeated Limerick 1-17 to 0-11 in the final. The team then went on to win the All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship, a victory that made Lohan and his teammates heroes in County Clare - it was the county team's first All-Ireland senior win since 1914.
Clare won the Munster and All-Ireland championships again in 1997, and Lohan received his third Munster medal when they retained their provincial title the following year. In 1999, Frank Lohan's performances were recognised with an All-Star award, being selected at corner-back.
Frank Lohan was Clare's starting number 4 for more than a decade, playing alongside his brother Brian Lohan in the full-back line. However, Brian retired after the 2006 season, and Frank moved to fill the vacant number three jersey during Clare's run to the 2007 All-Ireland quarter-final. He was also the Clare captain that season.
