Defending champions Kabras Sugar's perfect point scoring and unbeaten record continued on Saturday after the Carlos Katywa outfit hammered Kenyatta University's Blak Bald RFC 65-6 in a one-sided Kenya Cup match played at the Kakamega Showgrounds.

The win saw Kabras three seasons unbeaten run continue as they stretched their lead at the top to 35 points after seven wins in their opening seven matches of the 2024-2025 season.

Hillary Odhiambo gave the sugar men a deserved early lead after crossing the white wash for a 7-0 with the returning Jone Kubu adding the extras.

Patrick Lumumba stretched the scores to 12-0 with an unconverted try before the university students grabbed a penalty for 12-3.

Jeanson Misoga soon made it 19-3 after Kubu added the extras as big man Ephraim Oduor joined in on the party with the bonus point try for a 26-6 half time lead, a try that was converted by Kubu before Blak Blad got their second penalty score up.

In the final half, Lumumba grabbed his brace that Barry Young converted for 33-6. Collins Indeceh joined in with another try that Barry converted for 40-6.

Barry then went over for a try that he converted to stretch the lead to 47-6 as returning Kenya Sevens star William Mwanji made it 52-6 with an unconverted try.

Odhiambo who started the onslaught finished it by grabbing his brace before captain George Nyambua approved the win with the last try for a 65-6 win.
