Tigers tops but Lions are on a roll

ABRAKEBABRA Tigers are top of the pile in basketball’s Southern Conference — but watch out for Limerick Lions, who are on a high after their seven-point weekend victory over Mardyke UCC Demons in Cork.

It put them second in the Nivea for Men SuperLeague table, just two points behind Tigers.

"Now we are exactly where I hoped we'd be going into the Christmas break top two or three in the SuperLeague and we are in the quarter finals of the cup as well," coach Tom Hehir stated.
