LIT Celtics Put in Great Performance to beat Galway Titans 94-67

LIT Celtics had a comfortable win over the Galway Titans last Saturday night in St Munchin’s College. A large crowd turned up to cheer on the Limerick Mens team and were treated to a great evening of fast and skilful basketball.

From the tip-off, LIT were firing on all cylinders with Jordan Hehir and Tommy Walsh accounting for the opening 12 points. Celtics were working hard on both ends of the floor and the work rate was definitely paying off on the night with the Limerick men growing in confidence and extending their first quarter lead to 14 points.
