It was exciting to see the Hillcrest B team try their best, although losing three matches and getting a walk over Rusinga who failed to turn up in time. On the other hand, Hillcrest A played their hearts out and started by beating Peponi 8-7, Nairobi Academy 20-0, St. Christopher’s 12-4, and Makini School 8-0. The team qualified to the semifinals where they beat Peponi (again!) in a thrilling semifinal. Our girls lost to Brookhouse 26-11 in the finals to be runners-up in the tournament. The tournament’s most valuable player was our very own Miracle Denga. This team is composed of hardworking and dedicated players who pushed through sweat, blood and tears to reach the finals of the tough league and I salute them for the exemplary performance. www.hillcrest.ac.ke 97
