Neptune aiming to shoot down Star

WHEN the pennants hung from the roof of Neptune Stadium they spelled out the history of Irish basketball but, those days, the team that once ruled the roost survives on memories.

Coach Stephen McCarthy remembers the glory days. He was very much a part of them, cup winning captain, Player of the Year, distinguished international and he enjoyed a very successful stint as a pro.

It was his belief in the current side that has them in an exciting position going into tomorrow night’s quarter final play-off against Belfast Star with a semi-final place against the one time NIVEA for MEN SuperLeague favourites, DART Killester, as the prize.
