University of Eldoret(UoE Trojans) return to Nairobi for another weekend this time round looking to for their first win the second round of the Varsity League at Catholic University on Saturday October 6.
They face a Catholic Monks side that started the campaign with a 44-14 win over TUK.
Talisman Edwin Yatich will kick off the proceedings as he is named to start at flyhalf while Sirnile Luvutse is at fullback. Brian Kegodo, Mark Kimeto, Derick Oteino, Jose Mairu, Simiyu Barasa, Moses Ouma and Chwaa Sagura make the bench.
Catholic Monks names Kenya 7s' Johnstone Olindi at flyhalf for yet another weekend with Varsity League to scorer Geoffrey Okwach(3) starting at OC while Brian Ayimba is at fullback.
Both Catholic Monks and UoE Trojans met last season at the KRU Chamionship but with those over 25 years of age not allowed to compete, this clash presents a new challenge to both coaches.
