All set for game seven between UCU and JKL
Wednesday, December 11
*UCU Lady Canons Vs JKL Lady Canons – 7:30M
The much anticipated 2019 Women NBL game seven final between UCU and JKL will be free of charge, FUBA has revealed.
FUBA intends to give back to the fans and also encourage many people to watch women basketball.
UCU put themselves in a big hole when they squandered a 11 point lead going into the last three minutes of the fourth quarter as JKL ran riot to win 51-50 and force a decider.
JKL had managed just five and seven points in the second and third quarter, but they won 24-9 in the last quarter to complete a dramatic turnaround.
JKL must have got the momentum on their side, but there is a clean slate and the last will not count, it has come to only one game and the winner takes it all.
This is the second final for JKL who won their maiden championship last year when they beat UCU.
UCU are chasing a record eighth title, and if this comes pass, they will.be the record winners of the Women NBL championship, leaving the defunct Lady Bucks on seven.
Probable Starting five
UCU – Ruth Letaru, Rhoda Naggita, Zainah Lokwameri, Sarah Ageno, Rose Akon
JKL – Flavia Oketcho, Ritah Imanishimwe, Evelyn Nakiyingi, Stella Oyella, Hope Akello
