Killester forced to forfeit against Neptune

DART KILLESTER let things slip literally in double overtime on Saturday night as they forfeited a very tight encounter with Neptune in basketball’s Men’s Superleague.

Killester forced to forfeit against Neptune

With condensation accumulating on a new hardwood floor at the Greendale Gym, match officials were forced to call a halt to proceedings two minutes into the second period of overtime, awarding the victory to Neptune when Killester were leading by a point, 94-93.

The game, though generally sloppy, was exciting for the near-sellout crowd and neither team led by more than three points at any given time. Indeed, the score was tied at the end of the first quarter, at half-time and the end of regulation.
