While Killarney's victory was signposted, few could have predicted the result at the ESB Arena yesterday when Shamrock Rovers turned in the performance of the season to beat Neptune 102-89.

Rovers signed Mike Trimmer on Friday after Wayne Houston had walked out and Trimmer produced exciting rebounds as Macario, Ron Bruton and Anthony Jenkins put the finishing touches with some great baskets Jenkins and Macario including some big threes in the fourth quarter to seal victory.
