The 1st and 2nd year school basketball teams opened up their seasons with narrow defeats to local rivals St. Conleths in the South Dublin Basketball League. The first years started the game slowly as all team members were playing basketball for the first time but were able to do a great job in the second half making it a close game and narrowly losing 14-10. The 2nd year team were up against stiff competition as St. Conleths have a team that consists of 3 club players compared to the Marian team that have no club players. In spite of this the team performed very well but unfortunately couldn't finish enough of their lay-up opportunities to close out the game and ended up losing by 9 points 39-30.
