Kabras, however, advanced to the knockout stage as runners-up after previous wins over MMUST and Nakuru RFC. Elsewhere, Menengai Oilers dominated Pool C with three perfect matches, while KU Blak Blad and Kenya Harlequin secured second place each. Kenya Harlequin and Daystar Falcons topped Pool A, while Strathmore Leos and Mwamba RFC were the winners of Pool B. The day's tightest finish was between Strathmore Leos and Mwamba RFC, with the latter still advancing to the quarter-finals.
On Sunday, the Main Cup quarter-finals will be decided at RFUEA, with the Kabeberi Cup and crucial points in the National Sevens Circuit standings at stake.
