Coach of Mfantsipim basketball team Isaac Mensah says his team missed out on winning another national title due to hard luck and not bad officiating as being speculated by many.
The coach of the four time champions was adamant his team’s defeat to St.Augustine’ s College in the final was as a result of early foul trouble.
“It is a technical game so augusco team made good use of the foul trouble, we had our center Elorm Dzissah getting four fouls within seven minutes and that really affected us” he said.
When asked by Basketballghana.com regarding officiating, the young enterprising coach said “It is a technical game officiating was not bad is only when you don’t understand that you see people complaining”.
He went ahead to call the bluff of his opponents ahead of next year’s Championship by stating ” we will bounce back to win our trophy”.
St. Augustine’s College emerged champions in the boys’ division whereas Aggrey Memorial Mount Zion School topped the girls’ division.
