sides were level. A hat-trick of goals by Leonard McGrath and powerful displays by Mick Gill and Mick Derivan helped Galway to a 7-3 to 4-5 victory. It was a first All-Ireland medal for Power. Power was a key member of the team again in 1924 as Galway reached a second successive All-Ireland decider with Dublin providing the opposition. Galway played with the wind in the first-half and led by three points at the break. Two goals by Dublin forward Garrett Howard and a great goalkeeping display by Tommy Daly ensured a 5-3 to 2-6 defeat for Galway. Kenny retired from inter-county hurling following this defeat. After a number of years off the team Power returned in 1928, this time as captain of the team. Galway received a bye straight into the All-Ireland final with Cork providing the opposition. The westerners were completely overwhelmed with Mick "Gah" Ahern running riot and scoring 5-4. Power's side could only muster a single score during the hour and were eventually trounced by 6-12 to 1-0. After taking umbrage at the physical treatment of Mick King by some of the Cork players, Power threw his hurley onto the ground at the full-time whistle and decided to retire from hurling.
