Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA) women's basketball team Monday started their week-long tour of Kenya on a high, beating hosts United States International University 69-52 in an international friendly match in Nairobi.
The week-long tour, which will see the Ghana team train with their Kenyan counterparts and play friendly matches, has been organised by Sports Connect Africa in conjunction with the Kenya Basketball Federation and Hockey Farm Sports.

The Ghanaians led 21-12 in the first quarter and 20-13 in the second for a comfortable 41-25 lead at half time.
