Devon Warren scored nine points for President’s College while Nyamebekyere Bacchus scored eight points and grabbed eight rebounds for the top tertiary institution.
President of YBG, Chris Bowman said the conference was very successful because games were held in the neighbourhoods of the players and many of them were exposed.
