Braves of Customs delivered another big win in the 2019 Accra Basketball League (ABL) Women’s Division season thanks to a 63-24 victory over Reformers of Prisons at the Lebanon House Court in Tudu on Monday, September 16.
Adabraka CYO played home side Tudu Magic in the Men’s Division I immediately after Braves win but the latter lost 38-40.
CYO Center Melody Edwards scored a jump shot with three seconds remaining in the game to seal the two point win for his side.
However, the winning shot wasn’t the main take away from the game with controversial and questionable calls from game officials dominating post game conversation.
Both teams were visibly frustrated by some calls and Magic player Theophilus Akuetteh and player-Coach Edwin Haizel were hit with technical fouls verbally abusing the referees.
CYO and Magic went into the game on the back of losses in the division and both side battled hard for the win and a place in the top four positions in the nine team standings.
