Police's Male side registered a hard fought 61-55 win over Tema Youth while the female team recorded a 49-46 win over defending league champions Braves of Customs in the highlight game of the round.
Beating Tema Youth was Police's fifth win in six games and an 11 point tally is enough to put the team in first place in the Men's Division. It also sets the team up well for a showdown clash against Braves of Customs on Wednesday June 13 at the Lebanon House Court in Tudu.
In the female division, Police maintained first place with the win over Braves and extended its unbeaten to four games while ending Braves winning streak. Due to the latter's participation in a week long tournament in Kenya, Braves has an outstanding game to honor against Dunks also in midweek.
