St. Vincent’s fell to 5-5 for the season after a 98-76 loss to UCD Marian. Both sides went into the game with identical records, but 28 points from a debuting Bruce Saintilus on 10-20 shooting powered UCD to their sixth win of the season. Vincent’s scored the opening basket of the game through Jaylyn Richardson, but the 2-0 lead was the singular lead that they enjoyed in the game, with Marian keeping their lead from 5-2 all the way to the very end.

The new-look UCC Demons managed to pick up some momentum with two new pros, getting a win on their debuts, with a 103-88 victory over EJ Sligo All-Stars on Sunday.
