Ghana Police Service is no longer ranked second in the Accra Basketball League (ABL) Men’s Division I following results from the just concluded round of games played over the weekend.
The games were played at the Prisons and Police missed out a win after losing 58-70 to defending league champions Braves of Customs.
Heading to the game, Police ranked only behind Braves in the nine team standings but the loss and Adenta Leopards hard fought 52-50 win over Navy Warriors has cost the side its spot in the division rankings.
Police, Leopards and Tema Youth were tied on 18 points but the varied results have caused Adenta and Police to switch ranks while Tema remains in fourth place. Youth was inactive in the round due to administrative challenges affecting Reformers of Prisons.
