Kisii School has for the third consecutive time won the Nyanza Region 15s title, emerging as the new powerhouses of the sport by defeating long-time champions Maseno School and St. Mary's School Yala.

Numerous people had written off the Abagusii-based side following their dismal performance at the KSSSA National Finals of the past two years, when they could not proceed beyond the group stages. But their coach Lee Arstone remains convinced that his team has the calibre to compete with the best of the country.
