UGANDA : A1 Challenge Begin Hunt Campaign

A1 Challenge will be out to make a big statement in their MTN national basketball league opening game against the lowly ranked Muk Cubs at Lugogo today.
Olivia Mulwana, the A1 Challenge new signing, revealed that the 2007 playoffs finalists will seek to annihilate their rivals.
"We decided that we will aim to score a century," Mulwana stated.
The Cubs lost the opener against Nabisunsa 54 - 35 over the weekend and, given their opponents, look set to wait even longer for the first win of the season.
Cubs and A1 have extremely divergent ambitions for the season, the former unable to achieve more than the occasional win in the course of the season with the latter eyeing nothing less than the championship.
To put it differently, the Cubs finished second from down while A1 were runners up last season.
On top of that, when A1's acquisition of new skillful players like Mulwana is factored in, talk of a century is not empty bravado after all.
In the men's top division encounter, KIU have a chance to make it two consecutive wins when they face promoted Crane high.
KIU, who battled to an impressive 54 -51 win over Sadolin Power in their opener, face Crane high.
