A1 Challenge Cruise To A Comfortable 78:40 Win Over Magic Stormers.

This game came as a key test up to the depth of Magic Stormers
seeing that their entire team had 6 players which mean't one substitute
for the whole game directly translating into a burn out and fatigue.

Having lost a huge fraction of their players in Belinda Feni and Kalanguka Bridget
to KCCA Leopards and Carol who is off for the year as well as Nado who DNP,
they seemed depleted in their reserves.
Also unavailable for A1 challenge was Racheal Nanyonga, Ondiso Vickie and Desire Obua.

A1 Captain, Ntale Vickie led the assault by scoring a game high 19 points
and picking 9 rebounds closely assisted by Susan Amito
who had a double double in 15 points and 11 rebounds.Joanna Birungi sealed it off with 12 points.

This win is testament to the growth of the team in confidence and trust.
Ofcourse there is still alot of work yet left to do,
like the free throw shooting ought to be more lethal,
reduction on the fouling and turn overs.

It was great seeing all the players get adequate playing time and this will
come in handy when you have to give some breathers and trust
the bench to still take care of business.

Up next in the fixture list is a stern test for the A1 Challenge ladies
as they clash with the UCU Lady Canons on Sunday at 4pm via
Lugogo Indoor Arena.
