Limerick leader pleads for support

LIMERICK coach Tom Hehir last night appealed to fans to support them as they celebrated their biggest weekend since winning the National Cup a couple of years ago with back to back SuperLeague victories over Neptune and Waterford Crystal.

On Saturday evening they went to Neptune Stadium in Cork and beat the home side 111-102 in a thriller, and they produced more of the same at UL Arena yesterday to overcome Waterford Crystal 88-80.

“To say we are delighted would be an understatement,” insisted Hehir. “I have to hand it to the guys. They all played out of their skins.”
