Jentrix Shikangwa marked her return to the Harambee Starlets squad with a hat-trick as Kenya thrashed Seychelles 11-0 in an Olympic Games qualifier at the Ulinzi Sports Complex on Monday.

Second half substitute Marion Serenge grabbed a brace as Sylvia Makungu, Violet Nanjala, Vivian Nasaka, Mwanahalima Adam and Fascila Adhiambo netted one each, equalling the first leg's score - thus cruising to the next round on a 22-0 aggregate.

Coach Godfrey 'Solo' Oduor, only in his second match in charge, changed the entire team that started in last week's win, as he sought to balance playtime for all his squad members.

In the one sided affair, it was a long afternoon for the islanders as Kenya dominated from the first whistle, forcing them to a defensive mode throughout the match.

Kenya will take on the winner between Malawi and Zimbabwe in the next round.
