Kenya used a balanced offence and an aggressive defence to finish their matches on a clean note, thus cementing their supremacy on continent. Lydia Maiyo was tremendous for Kenya as she posted team-best of 13 points. Asha Makuto posted 12 while Edna Rotich added seven more. The team jetted into the country yesterday noon. Coach David Lung&#8217;aho called on the players to immediately turn their focus on the All Africa Games proper in Mozambique.<\/p>\n<p>Lung&#8217;aho said the team will move to camp next month. &#8220;We may have qualified but I think we need to work extra hard and improve on various aspects of the game,&#8221; he said. He said the players will quickly have to adjust to face tough teams in the All Africa Games hence the need to train training hard. &#8220;We&#8217;ve got an extremely tough tournament ahead of us. The teams that have qualified to the All African Games are all very good,&#8221; Lungaho said. &#8220;Getting into the top three would be extremely difficult,&#8221; he added.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><!-- end story layout piece here --><\/p>\n<p><!-- close google_banner_subbody div ---><\/p>\n<fieldset>\n<legend align=\"center\"><b>More News on allAfrica.com<\/b><\/legend>\n<\/fieldset>\n<p>AllAfrica &#8211; All the Time<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<\/div>\n<\/p>\n<p>Visit site:<br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/allafrica.com\/stories\/201103220309.html\" title=\"Kenya: Participants Turn Focus on All Africa Games Proper\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Kenya: Participants Turn Focus on All Africa Games Proper<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> Nairobi Star (Nairobi) Dun Okinyo 21 March 2011 The national women&#8217;s volleyball team ended their All African Games qualifiers campaign on a positive note in Addis Ababa, beating hosts Ethiopia 3-0.
