Born in Blackrock, Cork, O'Sullivan first played competitive hurling in his youth. He quickly became involved with the Blackrock club, eventually becoming a key member of the senior team. O'Sullivan's career coincided with a 25-year barren spell for the club.

Having never played minor or junior hurling for Cork, Lyons made his debut on the inter-county scene when he was picked on the Cork senior team for the first time in 1946. He won his sole All-Ireland medal that year, albeit as a non-playing substitute.[1] O'Sullivan was a regular on the team over the next few years, also winning two Munster medals as a non-playing substitute. He played his last game for Cork in May 1949.

gollark: Nope! Apparently it's unsupported because android is a horrible mess!
gollark: I updated TWRP and now it lets me run shell commands on it in recovery mode, *but* it won't decrypt the data partition right.
gollark: It only registers touch very occasionally.
