Reigning champs look forward to showdown with UCD

MARDYKE UCC Demons recorded a very significant victory over Roma St Vincent’s in the NIVEA for Men SuperLeague at Glasnevin yesterday and learnt almost immediately that they will be at home to UCD when they defend their National Cup title.

The draw for the quarter finals of the Cup was held after the game and also gave Neptune, beaten finalists last season, a home tie against Gleneagle Lakers. Roma St Vincent’s will be at home to Limerick Lions, who won the title in 2002.

The big game of the round will undoubtedly be between the leaders of their respective divisions, DART Killester and Abrakebabra Tigers.
