Basketball in Africa

Accra Polytechnic ladies are 99% odds on favourite to clinch the title after another masterstroke performance which saw them annihilate Takoradi Polytechnic 78-7 on Wednesday.
The ladies from the capital are simply on fire and unstoppable at the moment with breathtaking display that has left jaws dropping in the Western Region.
It was another display of maturity and sharpness as Mavis Martey, Afua Kobi Agyemang, Sarah Esinam Adukoph and Carlen Naa Adjeley Adjei put up a fantastic combination to ‘destroy’ their opponent in a one-sided contest.
The home supporters were left disappointed as they saw their team hammered in front of their own eyes.
It was a humiliating defeat suffered by the host and will need to do something about their sloppy defense.
Accra Poly will play whipping ladies and defending champions Tamale Poly but with 167 field goals, it looks almost impossible for any side to surpass them.
Victory over Tamale Poly will ensure they clinch the title after missing out to Tamale two years ago.
