Killester gain league revenge over UCD

NEWLY-crowned National Cup champions UCD Marian crashed back to earth when they suffered back-to-back defeats at the hands of 11890 Killester and a resurgent DCU Saints in the men’s SuperLeague over the weekend.

Jermaine Turner was back on song last night with a game high of 26 points as Killester exacted some revenge for their cup final shock a week earlier during an 87-74 victory at the IWA Centre.

DCU Saints had already ended the UCD Marian Cup celebrations on Saturday night when they recorded a 83-76 win to enhance their hopes of a second place finish in the Northern Conference, which would ensure home advantage in the play-offs.
