Africa-Press – Kenya. <\/strong><\/span>Kenya Ports Authority dominated Mt. Kenya Baseyetu 3-0 (25-16, 25-15, 25-12) in the Kenya Volleyball Federation league fourth leg at the Nyayo Stadium on Sunday.<\/p>\n

KPA captain Dennis Omollo said defence and service were key in their triumph.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur services and defence were strong, on the front and back courts. We have always trained hard knowing each team is equal to the task,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

KPA is no stranger to playoff contention.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is not the first time we are proceeding to the playoffs. We target to finish on top. We are tired of second,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Despite the loss, Baseyetu coach Vejerina King\u2019aru remained optimistic.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a young boys team. We are privileged to play in Division 1 as well as in an indoor arena. Most of my players were having exams. I had just eight. They are also short compared to KPA, but height doesn\u2019t really matter a lot in sports,\u201d King\u2019aru stated.<\/p>\n

She expressed hopes for the future, aiming for a top 10 finish next season and the possibility of securing sponsors to boost the team.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur players are good. If they get poached by the big teams, well and good.\u201d<\/p>\n

Nairobi Prisons beat Department of Defence Camp Admin Unit (D.O.D CAU) 3-2 (26-24, 23-25, 25-17, 22-25, 15-11).<\/p>\n

DOD CAU lost again, 3-2 (16-25, 21-25, 25-23, 25-14, 10-15), to Kenya Army in a replay of Friday\u2019s fixture, which was rescheduled due to insufficient lighting at Nyayo gymnasium.<\/p>\n

At Kasarani, Kenya Defence Forces (KDF) edged out Trailblazers 3-2 (25-21, 25-22, 21-25, 17-25, 15-5), while Administration Police fell 3-1 (19-25, 26-24, 21-25, 24-26) to Kenya Forest Service. Kenya Prisons beat Kenya Army 3-0 (25-13, 25-12, 25-19).<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a competition and it\u2019s all about looking for a win and that is where our main focus is and to qualify for the quarters in the playoffs. We look to improve on our previous performance,\u201d said Prisons\u2019 coach Josp Baraza.<\/p>\n

Trailblazers bounced back with a convincing 3-0 (25-14, 25-23, 25-19) win over Rift Valley Prisons.<\/p>\n

In a women\u2019s match played at Ulinzi Sports Complex, Kenya Prisons dominated DCI 3-0 (26-24, 25-18, 25-18).<\/p>\n
