Bungoma's Bukembe shock St. Anthony to qualify for Schools Nationals
Bungoma's Bukembe Secondary School have qualified for this year's Term Two Secondary school national ball games following their win over regional defending champions St. Anthony's from Kitale.
Bukembe beat St. Anthony's 2-1 in the finals on Friday in Lodwar to book the nationals ticket set for early August in Kisumu.
St.Anthony's and Kakamega High School had been tipped as the favorites to win the regional finals but the script ended differently with Kakamega having been eliminated early in the group stages.
Bukembe is not new to Kenya soccer with the area youth team mostly comprising of players drawn from Bukembe high school having won the 2010 Sakata Ball national Championships .
