A member of the Crecora/Manister club, O'Neill first came to hurling prominence as a schoolboy with Ardscoil Rís in the Harty Cup. He made his first appearance on the inter-county scene as a member of the Limerick minor team during the 2018 Munster Championship, ending the provincial campaign as top scorer. O'Neill was again minor top scorer for the provincial championship the following season as he captained the team to their first title in six years.[1] He progressed onto the under-21 team for the 2020 season before being drafted onto the Limerick senior hurling team for the 2021 National League.[2][3] O'Neill was an unused substitute when Limerick defeated Cork in the 2021 All-Ireland final.[4]
