Kenya Ports Authority (KPA) dominated the court, securing a century-mark victory over the Gladiators of Burundi in the Women's BAL qualifiers. With a perfect record in the tournament, the Dockers showcased their prowess, outperforming their opponents in every quarter. The game began with a strong opening by KPA, leading 22-06 in the first quarter, and continued with a commanding 26-5 performance in the second quarter, ending the half with a substantial lead of 48-11. The Kenyan giants didn't show mercy, outscoring Burundi 31-16 in the third quarter, and sealed the victory with a 21-15 win in the final period. Betty Kananu, a new addition to the team, shone brightly with an impressive 27 points, guiding the Dockers to another resounding triumph. The foreign trio of Alima Doumbia, Ifunanya Okoro, and Aminata Ly contributed 40 points, highlighting their growing impact on the squad. Every KPA player scored, except Daisy Awino Onyango, demonstrating the team's offensive depth and balance. This win keeps KPA at the top of Pool A, tied with Rwanda's APR, who also secured six points after defeating the Magic Stormers of Uganda. The anticipation builds as KPA and APR will face off in a crucial match on Thursday, with the winner claiming the Pool A leadership. The top two teams from this championship will advance to the final round in Cairo, Egypt, in December, marking a significant step towards the ultimate goal.
