Killester, Gurranabraher Credit Union Brunell and Trinity Meteors all maintained a perfect start to the Domino's Women’s Super League this weekend.
Brunell made the journey to Cavan to face newly-pormoted McEvoy’s Cavan Eagles who were looking for their first win of the season.
In a game of two halves, there were seven lead changes in the first half alone. But after the half-time break, Brunell turned up the heat and led by as much as 24 at one point. Maddie Cluse starred for Brunell with 24 points and 15 rebounds as they went home with a 2-0 record after a 17-point victory by a score of 72-55.
Trinity Meteors put in an all-team performance with four of the starting five scoring at least 10 points as they won 75-57 against Catalyst Fr. Mathews in Cork.
Kylie Horstmeyer led the way for Trinity with 21 points on 27 efficiency. She also had nine rebounds and three assists to round up what was a comprehensive day for the team from Dublin. They will be looking to continue their unbeaten start next weekend when they face SETU Waterford Wildcats.
The Waterford side should be in resurgent mood as they avoided an 0-2 start with an 82-65 win over FloMAX Liffey Celtics at Mercy College.
Meanwhile, over in Killester, the home side continued their great start to the season by following up a 27-point victory last weekend with a 28-point win against UCC Glanmire.
Three starters - Michelle Clarke, Samantha Haiby and Audrey Roden - combined for 54 of Killester's 78 points. They were also helped by a strong showing off the bench from Leilani Turner who scored 13 points on 5-11 shooting from the field. Killesters unbeaten run will be tested next weekend as they travel to face another undefeated side in Brunell next Sunday.
