Walker on final mission

It was a typical lunchtime at the Mardyke Arena for UCC Demons’ American Kenton Walker as he prepared to go through his daily workout with coach Paul Kelleher.

Walker is in his final days with Demons as he bids farewell this evening on the National Champions Trophy final stage against DCU Saints at the National Basketball Arena — but does so with a mission.

“Our lack of success has been in reality our failure to play 40 minutes in every game and that proved our downfall in the closing weeks of the SuperLeague season,” Kenton said.
