PHOTOS: Fans Cheer On Imperials But No Joy For Two Teams

TWO Tralee Imperials sides were out in action yesterday at Mercy Mounthawk gym, but there was no joy in either game.

First up was Team Brogue in the Under 20 National Cup tie against St Vincent’s 2 in the early afternoon.

In a thrilling game, Team Brogue just lost out 63 to 67. Team Brogue were two points behind with just 20 seconds left and on the attack, but a missed three point effort and a counter attack saw St Vincent’s seal the victory with two free throws after a foul.

In the Ladies National League game later on Saturday, Team Garvey’s had a disappointing evening, going down 36-56 to NUIG Mystics.

Despite the loss, the ladies were well supported on in the gym and the club is encouraging people to come along to the games to support both teams.
