UCU started off with a strong lead, scoring 24 points against Nabisunsa’s 11 in the first quarter. Sylvia Nakituuka opened the score with a three-point shot. Despite missing a couple of layups and jump shots, Nakituuka’s 11 first-quarter points gave the Lady Canons an early upper hand.
In a thrilling basketball matchup that had fans on the edge of their seats, the Uganda Christian University (UCU) Lady Canons displayed their determination to secure a coveted victory. As the halftime buzzer rang, the Lady Canons found themselves levelling up at 31 in their quest to finish the game on top.

In a bold move that underlines a desire to further the comradeship created during student days at Uganda Christian University (UCU), the institution’s alumni have launched a project where they can buy land and settle in the same area.
