Drama as Killester awarded points

THERE was a dramatic end to yesterday’s NIVEA for MENSuperLeague clash at the Parochial Hall when the Technical officials stopped the game and awarded the points to 11890 Killester despite the fact UCC Demons were leading 60-42 after condensation was discovered on the floor.

Demons were actually leading by 18 point with six minutes remaining when American Shawn Atupem slipped and fell after dunking the ball. There had been a previous stoppage to deal with a condensation issue.

Demons’ coach Paul Kelleher was philosophical about the abandonment insisting they would be looking on this as a win despite the fact that they will lose the points.
