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 .
