Neptune set up Killester showdown

AFTER a period in the doldrums, Bord Gais Neptune find themselves back in familiar territory following their 90-88 semi-final victory over UL Eagles that qualifies them for a showdown with champions, 11890 Killester, in next weekend’s NIVEA for MEN SuperLeague final at headquarters.

While they had an early season victory over Eagles, Pat Price’s side travelled to the University Arena as underdogs following two subsequent reversals.

And coach Price was understandably elated by Neptune’s performance and highlighted his side’s focus as a key factor in victory.
