VISALIA, Calif. (KFSN) -- A basketball game in Visalia pitted law enforcement against professional players.

Tulare County sheriff's deputies and police officers put on a different uniform on Saturday night for the "Memorial Showdown" fundraiser game. The law enforcement team took on the West Coast Dreamers and came away with the win.

The event helps raise money for the county's officers memorial. Saturday's game took time to honor fallen officers, including Exeter Police Officer Daniel Green.

Action News sports director Tommy Tran had the honor of serving as emcee.
