Strathmore Women Secure Dominant 61-47 Victory Over Enderun Lady Titans in Kenya Women’s Premier League

Strathmore Women delivered a composed and commanding performance to defeat Enderun Lady Titans Women 61-47 in a Kenya Women’s Premier League clash on 21 June 2026. The win strengthens Strathmore’s position in the league standings and underlines their reputation as one of the most disciplined sides in Kenyan women’s basketball.

Match Overview

From the opening tip-off, Strathmore Women imposed their tempo. A stingy defensive scheme limited Enderun’s scoring opportunities, forcing the Lady Titans into difficult shots and turnovers. By halftime, Strathmore had built a comfortable double-digit lead, and they never allowed the home side to mount a serious comeback in the second half.

The final score of 61-47 reflects Strathmore’s control on both ends of the court. They moved the ball efficiently, found high-percentage looks, and capitalized on second-chance opportunities. Enderun, despite flashes of individual brilliance, struggled to sustain offensive rhythm against Strathmore’s disciplined rotations.

Key Moments

• First Quarter Surge: Strathmore jumped out to a 16-8 lead after the opening period, setting the tone with aggressive full-court pressure.
• Defensive Lockdown in the Third: The visitors allowed only 9 points in the third quarter, extending their lead to 20 points heading into the final frame.
• Late Enderun Push: The Lady Titans cut the deficit to 12 with five minutes remaining, but Strathmore responded with a crucial 7-0 run to seal the win.

Standout Performers

Grace Akinyi led Strathmore with a game-high 18 points, adding 7 rebounds and 4 assists. Her ability to score in transition and from mid-range kept the Enderun defense off balance. Faith Wanjiku contributed a double-double with 12 points and 11 boards, dominating the paint on both ends.

For Enderun, Mary Chebet fought hard for 15 points and 6 rebounds, though she received limited support from her teammates. The Lady Titans shot just 32% from the field, a statistic that underscored their offensive struggles against Strathmore’s stifling defense.

League Standings Impact

The victory pushes Strathmore Women further up the Kenya Women’s Premier League table, reinforcing their credentials as title contenders. With a balanced roster and a clear defensive identity, they have now won four of their last five matches. Enderun Lady Titans, meanwhile, will need to regroup quickly to avoid slipping further from playoff contention.

The result also highlighted Strathmore’s depth – six different players scored six or more points, showcasing a team that does not rely on a single star. As the season progresses, that collective strength could prove decisive in tight contests against top rivals.

Strathmore Women will look to extend their winning streak when they face league leaders USIU Flames next week, while Enderun Lady Titans take on a resurgent Zetech University side in what promises to be a crucial encounter.
