The victory marked a strong comeback after their narrow 1-0 loss to St Noa Girls in the previous match.
As the 13th edition of the Eastern Africa University Games (EAUG) draws near, excitement is building across East Africa. Scheduled to take place at Maseno University, Kenya, from December 16 to 20, 2024, the Games will bring together over 30 universities from Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania, Rwanda, Burundi, and South Sudan to compete in a wide range of sports disciplines. This year, Uganda’s universities will enter the competition on the back of impressive performances at the 2023 All-Uganda University Sports (AUUS) Games, and they are anticipated to be among the top contenders at the regional event.
UCU’s journey to the World Cup was marked by a hard-fought victory in the finals of the sixth Afro Varsity 3×3 Basketball Championship, held in Kampala on July 28, 2024. The UCU Canons narrowly edged out Ghana’s University of Cape Coast (UCC) Wildcats, winning 18-16 in a thrilling contest.
The National Basketball League playoffs are going into a forced break and will resume on Sunday, July 28.
The UCU Lady Canons completed the regular season with a victory against the KIU Rangers in the university derby.
Shakira Nanvubya was instrumental on the day, dropping a game-high of 20 points to inspire
Shillah Lamunu was instrumental in the game, recording a double-double of 20 points and 11 rebounds.
In the 24th minute, Jovia Nakagolo was fouled in the area, but the center referee waved the challenge, giving Rines a goal kick.
At this point in the competition, there will be two legs instead of the single game that was played in the rounds of 32, 16, and quarterfinals.
