THEY may still be without a main sponsor but the show goes on for Tralee Warriors….and what a show on Saturday!

The Dublin side started well going 23 to 19 up at the end of the first quarter, but Tralee came back and went in at the break 40-39 ahead.
Eanna’s challenge was strong though and they led 61 to 59 going into the last 15.
In a humdinger of a final quarter, Warriors were spurred on by the vocal home crowd and inspirational late points by Kieran Donaghy and Ryan Leonard proved vital in their victory. Another great team performance with the Warriors machine rolling on. Scroll down for photos…
