Nigeria Customs have stopped the impressive victory runs of Plateau Rocks in the ongoing Zenith Bank Women Basketball League.

Final round of matches in both Abuja and Zaria centres which are venues for the Savannah Conference will take place today.
Meanwhile, the Atlantic Conference witnessed a match that could best be described as a final match on Tuesday involving two top teams-First Bank and Dolphins, both of Lagos.
It was an explosive encounter that kept spectators at the edge of their seats with First Bank superior by recording a 13-point victory margin in the match, which ended 58-45.
The other game in the centre saw Ogun Babes beating Oluyole Babes 59-56 in a very close encounter. It was the only win recorded by the Ogun Babes while Oluyole Babes failed to win any match in the first round stage.
