With the Kabeberi sevens imminent ,the Sportpesa National Sevens circuit is hitting the final homestrech.This year`s circuit has seen alot of unpredicted happenings leaving not only the fans in awe but also the teams and various stakeholders in suspense.
This has cut across through both the division one and division two.The division two which is largely dominated by university sides has provided a very good platform for teams to showcase their talent and expertise in seven`s rugby.
The University of Eldoret alias UOE TROJANS are top of the log with a total of seventy seven points. The university side have maintained a good run through out the circuit creating a seemingly good gap with other sides. They just need to finish in the top nine to be crowned division two champions.
