After two days of action, Makerere and Ndejje are neck and neck in the race to win this year’s MTN-sponsored inter university games going on at Nkumba.
Considered underdogs by far prior to the 13th edition of the games that started Saturday, Makerere’s women basketball side battered Uganda Christian University (UCU) Mukono 36-29 on Sunday and now look favourites for the trophy.
The Makerere side had whitewashed the hosts 68-15 on the opening day. Their male counterparts also made a good start, winning their opening two games against Mbarara (46-26) and Kyambogo 71-51 respectively but must contend with Ndejje, KIU and the hosts, who are equally looking strong.
