Neddy Atieno

Women’s Premier League players Neddy Atieno (pictured) and Pauline Adhiambo have landed a scholarship in Bethel University in the United States. The duo, whose scholarships will run for years, are expected to leave for the US in December. The two will join Laura Khadenje and Lorine Alivida who joined Wiley University three weeks ago. The players currently play for third-placed Makolanders. Adhiambo, who played for the Under-20 national team in the World Cup qualifiers, displayed a great performance between the posts to steer the team to the third round.
