It’s first versus second in the Northern Conference, as Myerscough College host Derbyshire Arrows in the last game of the weekend.
Myerscough head into the fixture following a close battle with Manchester Magic, with Franklin Agu scoring a game-high 20 points helping his side hold off a late comeback to beat Manchester 65-63.
