7’1″ Kobby Acquah visits with Hoops

Kobby, who is a native of Cape Coast made a stop over to the Hoops camp to meet the boys. He was very glad seeing them and did not hide his emotion. He told them he was wishing he had the opportunity they had as when he was in cape Coast there was not a basketball team. He also talked with them lengthily on basketball outside. He encourage them to be steadfast in their game as there are a lot of opportunities for them to play outside of Ghana and also achieve scholarships to US colleges and schools.
