Siaya County champions Sidindi Mixed Secondary School and Kisii County heavyweights Nyagichenche Secondary School kicked off the 2025 Nyanza Region Secondary School Term two games with big wins in rugby seven matches played at Homa Bay High School grounds on Wednesday.
Sigoti Girls kicked off the rugby battles with a 43-0 win over Sindo before Kisii County champs Nyagichenche hammered Nyakongo 24-5.
Siaya County champs Sidindi followed with a 26-5 win over Rangenyo with Moi Suba closing the girls action with a tight 17-12 win over Nyabisase.
Speaking after their win, Sidindi coach Gerald Ochieng congratulated his girls for the win but called for calm as they chase a ticket to national finals.
"It's a good start for us. We take it a game at a time because our goal is to get to the knock outs, then finals. The end game is to be at Mpesa Academy for the national finals at the end of the month," said Ochieng.
