Two penalty corner conversions from Eugene Kisagala guided Kakungulu Memorial to a 4-1 win over fellow Ugandan boys’ hockey side Kyaddondo SS at the ongoing Federation of East Africa Secondary School Sports Association Games in Kakamega, Kenya.
But long before Kisagala’s 39th and 3rd minute goals, Kakungulu, which has 10 points from four games (three wins and one draw) had opened the scoring through Shafiq Byamukama’s 18th minute strike and cushioned it with Titus Kyambadde’s 27th minute goal.
St. Anthony’s, equally with 10 points, saw off Ntare School 2-0.
In girls’ hockey, Uganda has not had as much joy.
Kakungulu are in danger of missing out on a medal as they lost 1-0 to Ngi’ya, who have eight points having drawn with favourites Tigoi Girls (1-1) and St. Joseph’s Kitale (0-0) earlier in the tournament.
