Senegal’s national women’s basketball team returned home on Monday after finishing runners-up at Afrobasket Rwanda 2023.
The Lionesses are back home. The vice champions of Africa walked the tarmac at Blaise Diagne International Airport (AIBD) on Monday around 5 p.m. aboard an Ethiopian Airlines plane. The band of Cierra Dillard (named in the five major) was thus welcomed by the Minister of Youth Pape Malick Ndour but also by the president of the Senegalese Basketball Federation Me Babacar Ndiaye and his vice president Gorgui Sy Dieng.
Beaten in the final by Nigeria (84-74), the players of now ex-coach Moustapha Gaye still achieved the objective assigned to them, namely to finish on the podium. However, there is a taste of unfinished business in losing a third consecutive final against the D’Tigress.
