REVENGE will be in the air at the IWA Centre, Clontarf tomorrow as Cup champions UCD Marian face defeated finalists 11890 Killester in the NIVEA for MEN SuperLeague.

AS CUP final weekend looms, it was an ideal examination of 11890 Killester’s mettle, and they came through a cracker, edging out Bord Gáis Neptune by a single point (63-62) in Nivea for Men’s Superleague action.

STILL reeling from their defeat at the hands of DCU Saints, defending champions, 11890 Killester were on the receiving end again when losing 75-67 to Belfast Star in their NIVEA for MEN Super League at Clontarf at Saturday night.

11890 KILLESTER will leave their NIVEA for MEN SuperLeague opponents with plenty of food for thought over the Festive season after a perfect campaign up to now in defence of the title.

UL EAGLES beat UCC Demons to set up another clash with defending champions, 11890 Killester, while Ulster Elks shocked Belfast Star and will meet UCD Marian — who beat DCU Saints for the second time in a week — when the quarter-finals of the Men’s SuperLeague National Cup were decided over the weekend.

ALL-CONQUERING 11890 Killester refused to wilt as they secured their eighth win of an impressive season in Cork — but UCC Demons pushed them all the way (90-82) in the top Nivea For Men’s SuperLeague game of the weekend.

UL EAGLES reversed their recent SuperLeague result to end the National Cup hopes of Bord Gais Neptune on Saturday, while 11890 Killester are just two games away from retaining the title after an emphatic victory over Moycullen in their quarter-final clash.

UL EAGLES cruised to a sixth Superleague win out of seven yesterday, destroying Moycullen with 30 points to spare in Limerick.

UL EAGLES travel to Cork tomorrow for a clash with Bord Gáis Neptune in a crucial Nivea for Men SuperLeague game at the Neptune Stadium (7pm).
