Kenya Basketball defending champions Eagle Wings has been in blistering form this season registering remarkable scoreline against their opponents in the Kenyan premier league.
Over the weekend on Sunday, the champions overshadowed Gladiators with a 95 -31 scoreline inspired by the top scoring form of Silalei Shani and Angela Okoth who managed 23 and 17 points respectively.
Team assistant coach Everlyne Kedogo says they are more determined than ever to retain their title and their current form is as a result of maturity and determination never witnessed in the past two years.
“We have got our groove back. We take each match with all the seriousness and we will not underrate anyone. We want to push ourselves to achieve the best and remain the best in this region. This comes with determination and hard work in training.” She said.
“No one is resting, everyone comes with a mentality to shock the champions, so to be able to counter their intentions, we have to be at our best before they can even think of pinning us down.” She added.
