Published on August 18, 2019, Kakamega High School, the 2016 champions, began their quest to reclaim their title with a resounding 46-0 victory over Kangaru at Tanzania Game Track and Safaris (TGT) grounds.
Meanwhile, debutants Dagoretti High School showed no mercy to regulars Ntare School from Uganda, drubbing them 60-0.
Kakamega High School's coach Amos Wamanga expressed satisfaction with the result, stating that it was an excellent start, but emphasized the importance of taking every match seriously in the round-robin contest.
"This is an excellent result especially against a good side, but we will take every match seriously because it is a round robin contest. Every win counts. More work must be done before we can celebrate," Wamanga said.
Benson Mwenda of Kangaru attributed their loss to a bad day, stating that they were not at their best and had too many turnovers.
"We were not at our best today and our units looked disoriented. We had too many turnovers and our build-up play was not up to standard. We have got to do better at this stage and also against this kind of opposition," Mwenda said.
