It's Ireland's second defeat of the group stage.
Ireland put in a better showing in their second game of the FIBA U18 Challenger event this afternoon.
Just 24 hours after a convincing loss to Lithuania, they ran Turkey very close before falling away in the closing stages to a 67-55 defeat.
After a two point haul in ten minutes of play yesterday, Emma Glavin stepped up significantly to notch 10 points on 4/14 shooting including two three pointers in 22 minutes.
Ireland 55 Turkey 67.
