Sx3 Star's Gareth Maguire and Adrian Fulton, along with Mardyke UCC Demon's Brian Clernon, have been short-listed to receive the Irish Basketball Player of the Year award 2003.

Basketball results:

UCC DEMONS won’t be taking any chances with Tolka Rovers at the Mardyke Arena on Sunday afternoon (3.15pm) while Waterford Crystal will be hoping to salvage their season when they play host to the raging hot favourites, Sx3 Star, at the WIT tonight (7.30pm) as the remaining hopefuls in the ESB national cup battle it out.

NEPTUNE maintained, if not consolidated, their position at the top of the ESB Super League table over the weekend with an 86-101 victory over Notre Dame that left coach Martin Aherne again singing the praises of the home grown players.

This game could have gone either way with Scruffy's St Pauls and University of Limerick playing some great basketball in the ESB women's superleague.
