Homa Bay's Agoro Sare Boys will represent Nyanza region in national secondary schools term one games in Mombasa next month.
Shimo La Tewa High School and Shanzu Teachers Training College in Mombasa County will host the showdown from April 5-14.
Agoro Sare qualified in basketball boys and rugby sevens after they beat Siaya's Chianda Boys 17- 5 in finals. They also humbled Nduru 19 -12 in semi-finals on Wednesday.
They also edged out Maseno School 56-54 in basketball finals after they saw off defending champions Ambira 65-53 in the semis.
James Momanyi, the school's principal, said the performance was the biggest achievement in the school's sporting history. “Basketball has been a preserve of some schools but I thank God that our school has broken the jinx," Momanyi said.
