Former Westmeath manager Seamus Qualter has taken charge of the Roscommon hurlers.
Qualter takes over from Dave McConn, who had four years in the position – winning the Nicky Rackard Cup in 2007
Qualter had plenty of success with Westmeath too, winning the two Christy Ring Cups during his three years in charge, while he also delivered a huge Leinster SHC victory over Dubilin in 2006.
