Co-op, who is so far the only team that has remained unbeaten, were ahead 19-13 in the first quarter and went on to command a 40-29 difference at the break.
After resumption, KU had proved the better side as dangerman Girffin Ligare's crisp perimeter shooting saw the students came out best with a 19-18 and 14-11
margin.
International Cliff Ochieng and Musa Odari scored 19 points each for the bankers. For KU, Ligare hit game high 25 that included five three pointers and Phil

clinching lay up for a 53-51 victory.
