Coach Jeff Jones hailed Manchester Magic's resilience as they added the EBL Division One to the National Cup in dramatic style on Sunday. Reading needed to beat Magic by seven points in the final game for the title but Manchester rallied to lose 91-89. "We trailed by 15 points with five minutes left but the boys' determination pulled us through," Jones told BBC Manchester. "It would have been nice to finish on a win but we hung in for another trophy."
After success in the National Cup, Manchester have the chance of a treble in the end-of-season play-offs with a home quarter-final against Taunton Tigers on Saturday, 5 April.
