Lichocha Shooting Rifles (in white) can go top of NBL |
The National
Basketball League (NBL) continues on Friday evening with an interesting A-Division
match-up between struggling a Limkokwing University outfit and second placed
Lichocha Shooting Rifles.
The game will
be played at the Lehakoe Recreation Centre with the tip-off at 18:00.
A win for
Lichocha would see them jump to the top of the standings, ahead of current
leaders Bokamoso South.
Lichocha, who
led the regular season standings last season before falling in the NBL playoffs semi-finals, are just a point behind Bokamoso. They go into Friday's game fresh
off a 134-35 thumping of LCE in their last outing. Limkokwing, on the other
hand, are yet to win this season and languish in tenth place.
To football,
and Vodacom Premier League outfit Sundawana have ruled out a return to the club
for former coach Bob Mafoso.
The Butha-Buthe
side are searching for a new coach after they sacked Sidwell Mothea last
Wednesday for going winless in his six games in charge.
Mafoso
inspired Sundawana to a surprise fourth place finish in the premiership last
season and he has since been linked with a return to Tse Bo Yellow in the wake of Mothea’s departure.
Mafoso left
Sundawana in July to join Bantu as an assistant coach but he remains a fan
favourite in Butha-Buthe.
And Sundawana
have struggled this season in Mafoso’s absence. They lie in tenth place in the
Vodacom Premier League with just one win from seven games.
On Saturday,
Sundawana face Lioli at Setsoto Stadium in the first semi-final of this year's
Independence Cup
