Leaders Kano Pillars continued their good run, beating Benue Buffaloes 31-20. It was an easy game for Solomon Yola’s side, who were good on both ends of the court. They could have won by a wider margin if the players had taken the chances that came their way, but they will be happy that this is another three points in the bag.
Niger United lost ground on the leading teams as they laboured to a 19-19 draw against Confluence Stars. It was a disappointing result for United, but a well-deserved one for Stars, who will be hoping to shine better in subsequent games. In the women’s category, Safety Babes beat Seasider Babes 31-25. Safety Babes, who are currently topping the table, will hope to continue their good run as the competition enters day four today on Wednesday.All rights reserved.
