INTRIGUING CLASH: Team coach Mark Scannell speaking to the team during a timeout for UCC Glanmire vs Catalyst Fr Mathews in the Domino's Women's National Cup Basketball game at Fr Mathews Arena, Cork. Picture: Larry Cummins

IT may well prove the most intriguing semi-final of Cup weekend in Cork - the women's last four duel between Superleague leaders Killester and hometown Cup specialists UCC Glanmire. Stir into the equation Killester's loss last week to fellow semi-finalists FloMAX Liffey Celtics and the injury doubt to Samantha Haiby and we've got a Saturday evening doozie in store (Neptune Stadium, 4pm)

Killester head coach Mark Grennell knows facing Glanmire in Leeside is an interesting gut check for his squad: “Glanmire are excellent and will obviously be well prepared to face us. It’ll be tough playing them in Cork. Knockout basketball always throws up some fun games. Should be a fantastic matchup”.
