BASKETBALL: Huskies’ focus turns to play-offS

Despite the close final scoreline, UL were by far the better team throughout. After establishing a commanding 22-9 lead after the first quarter, they always looked like pushing on and sealing victory. Head coach James Weldon praised his team’s ability to stay focused despite the fact preparations recently have been geared towards the post-season.

“We had a look at our strength and conditioning again and lifted quite heavy this week getting ready for play-offs so I’m happy with where we are at,” he said. “We play DCU next week and might face Waterford again in the play-offs so great to get the win on the road against them when we might see them in our place in a few weeks.”
