Ireland’s senior women demolished Bosnia and Herzegovina on Saturday night to get the first win of their EuroBasket qualification campaign. After the mid-week horror show against old foes Luxembourg, a response was needed, and James Weldon found a spark in Lorraine Scanlon. Inserted into the starting lineup, the St Paul’s player was ferocious all over the floor with 9 points and 11 rebounds in the first half, finishing with 11 and 15.
