BASKETBALL Jubilant Obilo says relishing KPA clash after dominant win over Equity
In their Game Three on Saturday night, the varsity side shocked the bankers 70-40 to achieve a 3-0 series win since they had defeated them in Games One and Two.
During last season’s semifinal, the Bankers were eliminated by the Warriors but tables turned this time around.
“We have to go back to the drawing board and address what does not work for us since we are facing a tough opponent in the final. We hope to do better,” Oketch said.
Odhiambo added that the win is definitely a morale booster for the team and they are now confident of posting great results going forward.
They now face five-time champions in the best-of-five final series that begins in Nairobi on Saturday, May 27 with the first two matches before heading to Mombasa for the remaining matches.
