For Limerick coach Matt Hall has retained much of last seasons panel with American Manny Peyton again leading their campaign. New signing, former Irish Jason Killeen, is a clear intention of their desire to push for promotion this season. The Cougars recent good showing v Waterford Vikings will look to be built upon with European signing Esebio Strijdhaftig and American Darren Townes in the starting line up tonight with the returning young Tommy Bowler and the experienced Andrew Fitzgerald both set for their first outings on the road, giving some more strength to the panel. The individual contest on the court of Townes & Killeen, both former teammates in the Templeogue Super Cup winning team ,and the meeting of Eagles' Manny Peyton and Killarney's Esebio Strijdhaftig will be key to the result tonight, with the Eagles in good form likely to make full advantage of their home court in University Limerick this evening. Tip off 7.
