Tommy O'Mahony's Waterford Wildcats delivered a memorable away Super League performance in Glanmire on Sunday.
Travelling to the home of the league leaders would always be challenging, but a dogged performance saw the Wildcats seal an 83-81 victory over Glanmire.
Notably, the win secured home advantage for the upcoming quarter-final clash.

In an expectedly competitive encounter, O'Mahony's side trailed their opponents for most of the fourth quarter.
A defining trait of this team is the unwillingness to concede to adversity, with the side showing character and composure to take control in the dying minutes.
The win means the Waterford outfit can look forward to a Super League quarter-final clash against Killester Dublin on Saturday 18th, March.
As always, Mercy Sports Hall will host the tie, and everybody is encouraged to mark the date, tell your friends and family, and bring the whole family along to support the team.
Confidence is high within the team, and there is a feeling that the sky is truly the limit in 2023.
Tip-off is at 2:30 pm in Mercy.
