Former CGA student Primerose Achieng just returned from the East African Games in Kampala, Uganda. Primerose was representing Kenya as she played for Shimba Hills High School in the secondary school event. This is the third straight year her team has competed at the African regional event where the top teams from Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi and South Sudan battle it out to see who is the best in East Africa. The competition includes boys and girls basketball, boys and girls football, rugby, field hockey, track and field, volleyball and other racket games.
This year Shimba Hills finished fourth in the region, losing in the semifinals to the eventual champions, Tigoi Girls Secondary School (Kenya), in a closely contested match. Unfortunately, they also fell in the third place match-up by a single point. Primerose uses her good speed, along with her dribbling and passing skills to man the point guard position. She has also been selected to play on the Kenya National Team later this year.
