Killester muscle in at the top table

he Big Three in women’s basketball are looking over their shoulders at a new threat in Killester. Tonight’s two Cup semi-finals should tell a tale

Now this is a proper double bill. For too long women’s basketball with its cup and league semi-finals hadn’t been able to say that. When you had just a Big Three and then everyone else, all you were literally left with was a game and a half, not two.

Any game featuring any two of UL Huskies, DCU Mercy or Glanmire was going to be more than just a game, the standard of fare the equal if not the better of anything camogie or ladies football or rugby in this country can offer.
