Champagne moment for National Cup champions Montenotte

Team Montenotte 96 Killester 64: Team Montenotte produced champagne basketball to clinch their third consecutive Women’s Premier National Cup final with an emphatic win over Killester at the National Basketball Arena yesterday.

The Cork side were simply on another planet and the one guarantee you get from this side is entertainment when they are in this frame of mind, according to head coach Mark Scannell.

“When we play like we did in the first-half not many teams can stay the pace with us and despite having a few hitches this season I never had any doubt coming into this final,” Scannell said.
