Mean Machine hosts Mwamba at the main campus grounds
The University of Nairobi Rugby Teams, Mean Machine A & B hosted Mwamba RFC A & B at
the Main Campus grounds for a Kenya Cup Game. Both games ended in favour of Mwamba
with a 23 to 10 defeat over Machine A and a 17:10 win over Machine B.
Although both UoN teams lost in these fixtures, Mean Machine has shown a steady
improvement in the quality of their game in this season, especially now that they acquired
weights to train with for strength building. This is no doubt a team to watch out for.
