Kepler 90-85 UGB<\/p>\n

APR 104-62 Tigers<\/p>\n

Kigali Titans 76-68 Orion<\/p>\n

Star guard Chad Bowie Jordan posted a game high 30 points as Kepler basketball club overcame United Generation (UGB) 90-85 in Rwanda Basketball League on Sunday, August 4, at Lycee de Kigali Gymnasium.<\/p>\n

The win moved Kepler into third place with 27 points, leapfrogging REG who dropped to fourth place with 26 points.<\/p>\n

Yves Murenzi\u2019s UGB started brightly, taking a narrow 23-22 lead in the opening quarter, but Kepler bounced back to claim the second quarter 25-21 go into half-time leading the game 47-44.<\/p>\n

Back in the second half, UGB dominate the third quarter 23-18 and reclaimed the lead with one more quarter to play. But it was Kepler who laughed last when they claimed the final quarter 25-18 to take home a hard-fought victory which increased their chances of finishing in the regular season in the top four.<\/p>\n

Besides Bowie\u2019s remarkable performance while his teammate Done Carlos Alejandro contributed 15 points to the winning cause.<\/p>\n

On the UGB side, Patrick Ronald Rembert scored a team high 35 points, 2 rebounds and seven assists while Milosevic Nemanja and Shaffi Habineza added 27 and 12 points respectively.<\/p>\n

In the earlier matches, APR maintained their top spot on the league standings with 33 points following a 104-62win over Tigers while Kigali Titans registered their only second win of the league campaign after defeating Orion 76-68.<\/p>\n
