When a team is defending its title, there’s some degree of discipline and vengeance that comes with its performance.

That is exactly what national men’s volleyball champions General Service Unit (GSU) exhibited when they came from behind to seal a memorable 3-2 (25-23, 22-25, 28-30, 25-17 and 15-13) against Kenya Defence Force (KDF) as this year’s play-offs served off yesterday the Kenya Ports Authority’s Makande Welfare in-door-gymnasium in Mombasa.
