Newcastle Eagles came up short in their quest for European glory as they were beaten in the final of the European North Basketball League in Bratislava.

The Eagles lost 95-82 to Romanian side CSO Voluntari in the match in the Slovakian capital.

The north-east club wanted to add a first European trophy to go with their British record of 28 domestic honours and beat Dziki Warsaw in the semi-final on Tuesday.

The final was level at half-time at 46-46 and Newcastle were also tied at 58-58 halfway through the third period, before the Romanians pulled away in the final quarter to go one better than last year.

Mike Okauru top-scored for the Eagles with 20 points, while Trey Pulliam contributed 14 and Seneca Knight 12, but it was not enough to bring the trophy home.
