Report

_________________________________________________________

Week 21 – 3-4 February 2018 [3]

Tralee’s Trae Pemberton shot a game-high 38 points as Garveys Tralee Warriors defeated Pyrobel Killester in a top-of-the-table clash by 84-72. Tralee’s first half lead was enough for the win, despite Killester’s third quarter run.[3]

The Dublin Derby saw a shock UCD Marian defeat at the hands of struggling DCU Saints. The league leaders lost only their third match of the league season by a slender 71-70. In an exhilirating end Dee Proby went to the free-throw line after being fouled and netted the two game-winning points.[3]

Meanwhile, in other matches, Templeogue won 96-76 against winless KUBS, while neighbours Eanna lost to Star in their trip to Belfast by a 71-62 scoreline. A first half lead wasn’t enough for Moycullen as they went down 72-85 in NUIG to UCC Demons. Demons, however, would lose their second game of the weekend on sunday, 78-95 in a home match with UCD Marian, UCD making up for their shock loss the day before.[3]

Week 22: 10-11 February 2018 [4]

Killester 79 UCD Marian 73 :Killester got revenge over UCD Marian after their Cup Semi-Final defeat. They went into the lead in the third quarter and made a few crucial baskets and free throws towards the end to seal the win.[4]

Eanna 74 Tralee Warriors 78 : Kieran Donaghy was the star as Tralee Warriors took over top spot with this close win over Eanna. Eanna had drawn level with minutes to go with baskets from Conor Whyte and Mylynue Reeves, however, 3 baskets from two trips to the free throw line from Donaghy was enough to send Tralee top.[4]

DCU Saints 56 Griffith College Swords Thunder 85: Swords got revenge for two defeats earlier this season to their North Dublin rivals. The win put the Griffith College side into second in the table[4]

Maree 81 Templeogue 90: Templeogue came back from a third quarter deficit to win a tight one against Maree in Galway. Mike Bonaparte (23 Pts) and Neil Randolph (17 Pts) were the stars for Templeogue as a shock loss was narrowly avoided.[4]

KUBS 71 Moycullen 87: The Galway picked up a win in Dublin against bottom side KUBS. Brandon McGuire scored a huge 32 points as they ran out comfortable winners.[4]

UCC Demons 83 Belfast Star 66: UCC Demons ran out winners in this mid-table clash to keep up their slim hopes of a top four finish.[4]

Week 23: 15-18 February 2018

Eanna 46 UCD Marian 72: UCD Marian took back top spot following a convincing win over Eanna in Rathfarnham.[5]

UCD Marian 86 Tralee Warriors 83: Sharp shooting from UCD’s Dan James, who scored 25 points was enough for a close victory over Tralee in this top-of-the-table clash. UCD’s Ioannis Liapakis commented it was a “really, really difficult game” as only three points separated the sides.[5]

Griffith College Swords Thunder 81 Moycullen 61: Griffith College kept up their challenge on league leaders UCd with this 20 point win over Galway side Moycullen.[5]

Templeogue 74 Belfast Star 70: “Sheer grit” from Templeogue was what it took to win this close encounter with Belfast star.[5]

KUBS 87 DCU Saints 86: The Kilbarrack side got their first win of the season with a last minute Kevin O’Hanlon shot.[5]

Maree 72 Killester 79: Killester kept pace with the top three with this narrow victory in Galway.[5]

UCC Demons 74 Eanna 73: UCC Demons won with an Adrian O’Sullivan basket with seconds left to solidify their mid-table position and leave Eanna still in relegation trouble.[5]

Week 24: 23-25 February 2018

With UCD Marian losing leaving four of the top five teams on five losses each the scene was set for an exciting climax to the season.[6]

Belfast Star 92 UCD Marian 81: Keelin Cairns top-scored for Belfast on 23 points as Star shocked the league leaders.[6]

Killester 86 UCC Demons 77: Royce Williams (21) was the top shooter for Killester as they overcame UCC in Dublin.[6]

DCU Saints 109 Maree 102: Both teams racked up over 100 points in this bottom-half-of-the-table clash. Dee Proby scored a massive 43 for DCU as they defeated the Galway team.[6]

Tralee Warriors 75 Griffith College Swords Thunder 74: This top-of-the-table clash came down to a single point as Goran Pantovic scored a late hook shot to give the Kerrymen victory. The win left Tralee tied at the top on points.[6]

KUBS 75 Eanna 67: Bottom of the table KUBS secured their second win in a row as they piled relegation worries on fellow strugglers Eanna in this Dublin derby. Brian Andrews netted 30 points to give the Kilbarrack side a vital win.[6]

Moycullen 71 Templeogue 88: Jason Killeen (21) was top-scorer as Templeogue stayed in sight of the leaders with this win.[6]
