Nungua Coldstore will stay in first place of the 2019 Tema Community Basketball League heading to the second round of the ongoing campaign.
The team’s 64-33 win over Teshie Rangers ensured the team remains at the apex of the 12 team standings at the end of its run in the first half of the tournament.
