Edward Peter Keher (born 14 October 1941) is an Irish former hurler who played as a centre-forward at senior level for the Kilkenny county team.
Born in Inistioge, County Kilkenny, Keher first played competitive hurling whilst at school in St. Kieran's College.
He arrived on the inter-county scene at the age of fifteen when he first linked up with the Kilkenny minor team.
Keher was just fifteen years-old when he was called up to the Kilkenny minor team in 1956.
He won a Leinster medal as an unused substitute that year following a 4–7 to 3–7 defeat of Wexford.
In 1957 he was just fifteen years-old when he played a key part for the college in the provincial championship.
A 6–3 to 3–0 defeat of Patrician College, Ballyfin gave Keher his first Leinster medal.
The subsequent All-Ireland decider on 28 April 1957 saw St. Kieran's line out against St. Flannan's College, Ennis.
Keher scored three goals in the second half to clinch victory, before setting up a fourth goal in a narrow 4–2 to 2–7 victory.
It was his first All-Ireland medal.
In 1957 Keher added a second Leinster medal to his collection, as Offaly were defeated by 5–10 to 4–2.
The subsequent All-Ireland final against Tipperary was a replay of the previous year, however, the game was much closer.
St. Kieran's continued their dominance in 1958, with Keher adding a second Leinster medal to his collection following a 10–4 to 3–4 thrashing of Cistercian College, Roscrea.
He made his senior debut in the 1959 championship.
Keher went on to play a key part for Kilkenny over several seasons, and won six All-Ireland medals, ten Leinster medals and three National Hurling League medals.
In 1959 Keher was captain of the team.
He won a third Leinster medal to his collection that year, after receiving a walkover in the final, before later lining out in the All-Ireland final on 19 April 1959.
Abbey CBS, Tipperary provided the opposition, however, a 2–13 to 4–2 victory gave Keher a second All-Ireland medal, while he also had the honour of lifting the Croke Cup as captain.
