After sitting out much of the first round with an ankle problem, Ivan Enabu returned on the Warriors’ team.
The point guard came off the bench scored 9 points, handed out 6 assists and swiped 4 steals in the 20 minutes on the floor. Vinnie Jurua led Vegetarians (2-10) with 12 points and Lawrence Waligo added 10.
Meanwhile Giant Stormers edged Rez Life Saints 50-47 to complete a double on fellow new comers.

In the women’s division, Ruth Nakitto and Zaina Lokwameri combined for 45 points to pace Nabisunsa to a 64-40 win over fellow high scholars Crane High.
