Africa-Press – Kenya. <\/strong><\/span>Federation of East and Central Africa Secondary Schools Games volleyball champions Kwanthanze Secondary School beat hosts Morocco in straight sets as the African School Championships continue in Casablanca.<\/p>\n

Dominant Kwanthanze won the first set 25-17 as the Justine Kigwari-coached side laid down a marker.<\/p>\n

The Machakos County institution claimed the second set 25-16 with the final set reduced to a one-sided training session for Kwanthanze, who grabbed it 25-10.<\/p>\n

The championships which bring together winners from school games in various disciplines across Africa, started on February 26 and will end on March 3.<\/p>\n

Cheptil Boys Secondary School, who also emerged winners during the FEASSSA Games that were held in Arusha, Tanzania last year, are also part of the five-day championship.<\/p>\n

Kwanthanze beat compatriots Kesogon 3-0 in the regional finals last year while Cheptil whipped Standard High school of Uganda 3-1.<\/p>\n

Prior to their departure last week, Kwanthanze trained at the Kasarani Indoor Arena where they played friendly matches with local clubs.<\/p>\n
