It was a day of high drama and mixed results on the hardwood as Davitt College went head-to-head with Coláiste Iascaigh.

The First-Year boys kicked off their campaign in spectacular fashion, grinding out a hard-fought 19-13 victory to claim their first win of the season. The squad showed brilliant defensive structure and composure under the rim to close out the game and get their league run off to the perfect start.

Second-Years Fall Just Short in Nail-Biter

Immediately after, the Second-Year boys took to the court in what turned out to be an absolute thriller. In a classic, end-to-end battle where every single possession counted, the Davitt side unfortunately ended up on the wrong side of a narrow 19-23 scoreline. Despite the sting of the close defeat, the performance showcased a massive work ethic and plenty of tactical promise for the upcoming fixtures.

A huge thank you to Mr. McTavish and Mr. O’Connor for coaching the boys and driving the basketball program forward! 🏀🔴🟢👏
