The Sugar Millers snatched the game at the end with a try that was converted successfully to end the game 30-27.
Going forward, Achayo said they cannot get too comfortable and they have to step up preparations ahead of the next season. He revealed that they also need to be wise in their selection of a formidable squad.
“Being champions is not easy and we cannot afford to be complacent. Once you get to the top everyone wants to knock you down and we even have to be smarter in our training regime going forward,” he said.
Achayo believes the win is a good way to end the season and it will help strengthen the mentality of the squad. He added that it will give the boys the morale to always keep fighting and not give up.
The team comprised of mostly young players who were making their first appearances on such a big stage with Achayo revealing that they will be keen on giving the youngsters opportunities to play with quality opponents.
