    Power 72-92 UCU Canons

    UCU Canons returned to winning ways with a remarkable 92-72 victory against Power in a National Basketball League encounter at Lugogo Arena.

    The victory was secured after the Canons suffered a narrow 70-67 loss to the improved Kampala Rockets side.

    UCU Canons led 24-21 after the first quarter, their advantage widened to 15 points by halftime.

    Coming from the locker rooms, the Canons were on some other level as they extended their lead to 29 points with only a quarter to end the clash.

    Power tried to launch a comeback in the final quarter but the Canons were equal to the challenge thus securing a 20-point victory.

    Notably, two UCU Canons players registered a double-double: Peter Sifuma with 17 points and 11 rebounds while Joel Kayira contributed 16 points and 13 rebounds.

    In the 16 games played so far, the Canons have registered 10 victories and six draws.
