Top two ready for Cup final showdown

EXPECT fireworks when defending champions, DART Killester, and UCC Demons, who preceded them on the throne, tip-off in the final of the Men’s National Cup at the National Basketball Arena tomorrow.

When the sides met in November in the SuperLeague, DART Killester were comprehensive 98-86 winners, victory that will count for nothing when the charts are wiped clean for this clash of the titans.

“The two best teams in the SuperLeague have reached the final of the Cup and that does not normally happen,” Killester coach, Mark Keenan, said. “It is fitting the two of us are there and I think it is going to be very exciting for the fans.”
