Stephanie McBride put up 32 points and 13 rebounds as second place, Limerick Celtics beat Oblate Dynamos 91-75 in Inchicore on Saturday night.

The Dublin side, who had four players in double figures, including Sophie Staunton on 21, were just six points adrift of their opponents heading into the fourth quarter, but a late surge by Limerick, that included 20 points from Shelby Harmeyer, 18 points by Amy Buckley and 14 by  Sabhbh Edwards Murphy, saw them comfortably over the line in the end.
