Having earlier beaten Benue Princess 58-34, the Kaduna side recorded wins in other games just like the two other qualifiers for the Final Six, which is scheduled to hold in Lagos starting on Saturday.
The Zenith Bank Women’s Basketball League finals will hold from November 3 to 7 in the sports hall of Lagos National Stadium, with First Bank of Lagos as the defending champions.
