Coach Muge blames travel woes for Lady Titans KNBL weekend loss

The league newcomers have now played 18 matches, winning only two and losing 16 to remain 10th on the standings with 20 points.

Eldonets, meanwhile, enjoyed a perfect weekend after edging Strathmore Swords 56-53 in their other fixture.

The Eldoret-based side sits sixth on the table with 25 points from 17 matches, having registered eight wins and nine losses.

Musebe said the overnight journey and inability to travel with a full squad made it difficult for his players to compete at their best.

"We had just traveled overnight, and the girls didn't have enough time to rest. We were also only able to travel with six players, which made things even more difficult.

One of the biggest challenges we face as a self-sponsored team, especially during away matches, is that we can't always travel with the full squad. Despite that, the ladies gave their very best, and I'm proud of them," Musebe said.

Eldonets head coach Moses Muge attributed his side's double victory to the players' growing trust in one another and their commitment to the team's playing system.

“I think what is working is that the girls trust each other more, and they trust the process and the system that we've been working to implement over the past few months. You can now clearly see we are playing a more structured game, which is a big plus for us, and we're hoping to get even better.

“If you look at our roster, we are lacking in size and height, which is something we hope to address as we build towards the playoffs. We also need to improve our shooting and be more efficient with our shots," said Muge.
