MBABANE – With a derby, bragging rights are always at stake.
This will be the case when the University of Eswatini (UNESWA) sides, UNESWA
Alumni and UNESWA Hawks face off in the University Basketball League (UBL). The
two sides would come into this clash separated by four points. It should be
noted that this game will be interesting to watch, as both teams would want to
leave a mark. Alumni are still yet to lose a game having won two of their
opening games.
Strongest
They beat Manzini Superstars and Mbabane Knicks, two of the strongest teams in
the league. Meanwhile, Hawks have a tough time in the league as they are still
searching for their first win. They have lost to Mbabane Knicks and Manzini
Superstars. Normally during a derby, form does not count, so an upset might
happen if Hawks get their acts together and put their past results behind them.
It remains to be seen if Alumni will continue with their flawless run. In
another interesting game, Lady Jazz will cross swords with Amazons. Action will
continue tomorrow, with Knicks having a date with Manzini Superstars while
Street Cred will square up with Alumni. Hawks will also play Zim Zim tomorrow.
The fixture was released by the league’s Public Relations Officer (PRO),
Thando Mkhatshwa yesterday.
