Basketball Ireland's Podcast

A tragedy in the extended UL basketball family was the main reason behind a sub par performance, which meant that a great Killester performance saw them come back with all the points to cause the biggest upset on the court all season. The Ulster Rockets season finally took off moving into the top half of the table with a victory over Meteors in Stillorgan. This leaves WIT Wildcats, Brunell and DCU Mercy best placed after the initial series of fixtures in the Women's Premier League. In the National Cups, UCD almost completed a remarkable turnover after trailing by 31 points going into their second leg with UCC Demons. Dublin Inter managed to turn a 12 point deficit into a single point victory in their second leg with UL Eagles. Neptune, DCU Saints and Killester also progressed in their encounters. While DCU Mercy easily defeated WIT Wildcats to reach the Quarter Final.
