Semi-Final: Kerry 81 Sligo 39

Kerry’s experience, including three Irish Internationals, saw them win against Connacht Champions Sligo in the All-Ireland Semi-Final. Four Kerry players reached double-figures (C. O’Hanlon, M. O’Grady, D. O’Shea & B. burrows), while only two Sligo players, Tom O’Brien and David Pugh reached double figures. Kerry opened the scoring and were more accurate with their shots despite a valiant Sligo side, who had numerous missed shots, and only three scorers on the scoresheet. The home team were no match in the end for a Kerry side that boasts 15 clubs in Tralee alone.[1]

Kerry 81 C. O’Hanlon (20), M. O’Grady (19), D. O’Shea (17), B. Burrows (17), D. O’Donnell (4), T. Falvey (4), T. Lynch, C. Spring

Semi-Final: Antrim 43 Dublin 41

Antrim came from behind in the second half to beat Dublin in a thrilling Semi-Final in Cathal Brugha Gymnasium. Dublin were up by 20-14 at half-time and midway through the second half but Antrim were 10 points up midway through the second half before a late Dublin surge left it a two-point game in the end. Mick Brennan was the Antrim star, scoring 28 of their 43 total, F. O’Sullivan and B. Collins managed double-figures for Dublin.[2]

Antrim 43 M. Brennan (28), B. McMahon (4), G. Hannigan (4), J. McKeever (4), R. Jameson (2), E. Brennan (1).

Dublin 41 F. Sullivan (16), B. Collins (13), C. Keyes (8), N. Nugent (2), D. Rochford (2).

Final: Antrim 67 Kerry 53

Antrim defended their All-Ireland Senior Championship which they won in 1962, and in the process denied Kerry an historic treble, as the Kingdom had beaten Kilkenny in the Minor and Junior Finals. Kerry led 28-23 at the half and it looked like they would win the treble, but a second half comeback by Antrim dashed their hopes. Antrim’s height advantage paid dividends in the second half and with five minutes left they were 20 points up, easing to a 67-53 victory. Four Antrim players reached double figures (G. Hannigan, G. Clarke, C. McKinney & M. Brennan. A. O’Shea and B. Burrows reached double figures for Kerry.[3]

Antrim 67 G. Hannigan (18), G. Clarke (13), C. McKinney (12), M. Brennan (10), A. Moneypenny (5), B. McMahon (4), J. McKeever (3), D. O’Connor (2)

Kerry 53 A. O’Shea (13), B. Burrows (11), B. O’Grady (8), C. O’Hanlon (8), A. O’Donnell (5), A. O’Sullivan (4), C. Spring (2), J. Galway (2).

Final – DCU Mercy 72 Ambassador UCC Glanmire 71

DCU Mercy won their third National Cup Final of the weekend in a last-gasp 72-71 victory over Glanmire. A point was all that separated the teams at the end, leaving DCU captain and MVP Sarah Woods to wonder if she was dreaming. It was DCU Mercy’s first Cup Final win since 2011 and they stopped Glanmire’s five-in-a-row attempt in the process. DCU took a 19-16 lead in the first quarter, however, Glanmire fought back in the second quarter, Casey Grace netting a 20-footer for her first points of the game to put Glanmire 37-35 half-time lead, and cap a 13-0 run. The lead would change hands 12 times over the course of the matc, and Glanmire could have won it if Ashley Primm’s three-point shot had gone in on the buzzer, however it wasn’t to be and DCU Mercy finished one point winners in a game that had all the tension and drama won could imagine. Sarah Woods would finish top-scorer on 21 points to cap a glorious weekend for her and her team. [3]

Report

_______________________________________________________________________

Dublin Celtics qualified for the European Cup with a 39-33 victory in the National Basketball Championships in Cathal Brugha Gymnasium in Dublin. The quality of play was not of a high standard for a National Competition and it was only the brilliant play of the Dublin team’s veteran, Capt. Pat O’Hara that gave them victory in the Final against their Belfast namesakes. Kickhams Clonmel were the Munster representatives, St. Mary’s Athlone the Connacht representatives, St. Mary’s Dungannon the Ulster Regional representatives, and Curragh Band the Leinster Regional representatives.

Final – UCD Marian 62 Black Amber Templeogue 68

Templeogue won their second Cup Final in three years and added to their U18 Cup win earlier in the day by beating UCD Marian 62-68 in a close encounter. Defence was key in the first Quarter as the teams gave up just 27% of 33 shots. Luke Thompsons three pointer gave Templeogue an early lead, however, UCD Marian scored 21 points in the second quarter to draw close but Baolach Morrisson put Templeogue 50-45 up at the half with a crucial three-pointer. Conor Meany, a graduate of their Youth Programme, proved instrumental in bringing UCD Marian back within three points with less than three minutes on the clock, but two vital steals from Michael Bonaparte ensured the win for Templeogue. MVP Lorcan Murphy top-scored on 23 points as Templeogue hung on to defeat their South Dublin rivals.

Report

St. Mary’s won the 2016-17 Final after the disappointment of losing the final the previous year, however, it was not St. Mary’s all the way as Queen’s University broke out to an early 8-1 lead in the first quarter. Nicole O’Neill & Colleen McVeigh managed to level the scores at 9-apiece by the end of the quarter,

It remained level at halftime, with both sides on 19. A 14 point tally in the third gave the advantage to St. Mary’s as they built up a 33-25 lead at the end of the third, and they weren’t going to let that slip as Queen’s University’s rally early in the fourth was cancelled out by four St. Mary’s goals in succession as they matched each other through the quarter, finishing 43-35 to the St. Mary’s team.
