Hosford glad to be guarding the house again

UCC Demons point guard Kyle Hosford has just returned from his daily workout at the Mardyke Arena. Commitment to basketball and the Mardyke club is unconditional, but it wasn’t always that way.

Hosford works out five times a week and still manages to train three times with his beloved UCC Demons. Tomorrow he will be hoping to help his team defeat fellow joint leaders Killester in what is being touted as the game of the season in the Men’s Premier League.

Now in the best shape of his young career, the 24-year-old almost walked away from the sport last season when he dropped down a division and helped his club win a league and cup double.
