On 21 October 2018 Naomh Éanna beat St Martin's 2-11 to 0-13 to win the Wexford Senior Hurling Championship for the first time in the club's history.
October 2018 is the afternoon the club's history divides around. Facing St Martin's in the Wexford Senior Hurling Championship final, Naomh Éanna won 2-11 to 0-13 — a first county senior title for a club that had been founded only 48 years earlier and had been hurling intermediate three seasons before.
Conor McDonald, the club's most recognisable hurler and by then an established Wexford senior forward, scored 2-01 from play at full-forward. The two goals were the difference in a final in which St Martin's never managed one of their own.
The win completed an extraordinary sequence for a group of players who had come up together: an Intermediate A Championship in 2012, the Wexford Intermediate Championship in 2015, promotion to the senior grade, and then the senior title itself in 2018.
For supporters who had travelled to junior and intermediate finals for decades, it was the day Naomh Éanna stopped being a club with promise and became a club with silverware at the highest level Wexford hurling offers.
