The REG Women BBC’s winning streak won’t extend past ten games after they were handed a convincing defeat by the APR WBBC, 90-85, on Saturday evening at Club Rafiki. Nelly Sandra Nsanzabaganwa put up a stellar offensive display, driving into the paint at will.

Saturday, August 6, 2022, Club Rafiki hosted one of the mouth-watering clashes of the Rwanda Women’s Basketball League between two Kigali giants. The former champions APR WBBC and the defending champions, REG Women BBC in an eye-catching offensive game of the season so far.

The defending champions started off the first quarter with a 10-0 run as APR didn’t have a point in like the first four minutes of the game. They ended the first period with a 24-13 lead, confidence that carried them through the second quarter, and hope to take an easy win to keep their remarkable unbeaten run.

Rwanda Energy Group team, led by coach Esperance Mukaneza won the second quarter and went into the break with a double-digit lead, 45-32.

After falling down in the first half, the 2018-2019 league champions turned things around with a huge third quarter, cutting the deficit to end the quarter score in a tie. 60 points a piece.

In this period, REG who had a chance to kill the game in the second quarter were dominated and it was obvious their fouls would cost them at the end.

Charles Mbazumutima’s APR come in last quarter with a very solid offensive approach. The opponent’s best players on the court were all one foul away from fouling out. Ines Nezerwa “Giti” (C) and Mireille Muganza (C) plus Odile Tetero (PG) each had 4 fouls with 5 minutes to spare. They drove into the paint too easily for the rest of the game since the electricians had no structural defense to stop them. Thus APR overcame REG to end their 10-game winning streak. Full-time REG Women BBC 85-90 APR BBC.

Nelly Sandra Nsanzabaganwa led the way with 25 points, 7 rebounds, and 13 assists. Laurence Imanizabayo added 24 points while Betty Kalanga come off the bench to contribute 20 points, 8 rebounds, and expertly played perimeter defense to boot.

Sandrine Mushikiwabo scored a team high19-point for REG. Three starters (Ines, Odile, and Mireille) fouled out in the game while Ange Nelly Irakoze stepped onto the court after a one-year half knee injury.

APR WBBC finished the regular season on a positive note, 11-1. In case REG beat The Hoops next week, they will equally have the same win/lost ratio with APR. With head-to-head as a tie-breaker, REG will take first place since they beat them 55-43 in the first leg.

RP-IPRC Musanze beat UR Huye 65-57 to maintain the high spirits and win a Rwanda Basketball League D1 relegation battle

RP-IPRC head coach Rene Sahabu and his IPRC Musanze boys have been under pressure in recent weeks as they have continued to linger in the relegation places.

Saturday, July 23, RP-IPRC Musanze, traveled to UR Huye with a mission to carry on their fight to stay alive in the Rwanda Basketball League division 1.

IPRC Musanze ended the 1st Quarter with a double-digit lead (10-20), but UR Huye ramped up the pressure to Musanze lads by holding them to 12 points in second quarter, heading in to the break with a tight score. 31-32

The Rene Sahabu coached side dominated the opponent in the last two periods to seal the win for good. 11-16, 15-17 and finish with an eight points difference. 57-65.

RP-IPRC Musanze small forward, Gislain Munyakazi has been fantastic in this season, and he put up yet another brilliant show, 21 points in the UR Gymnasium to give his side hope even if his team is desperate to keep him next season.

Speaking ground-sports.com after the game, the head coach highlighted the contribution of this young lad both defensively and offensively not only in this match but for the entire season.

“Gislain is a good player. He has improved a lot this season and I think you’ve seen how his versatility both offensively and defensively had a major impact on our game today. He’s a hardworking man, who understands and executes my game plans very well. If he continues in this path, he will surely be a great player” Said Coach Rene

Munyakazi has scored 304 points this season so far. He’s currently sixth on top scorer list behind Kamndoh Frank, Espoir Aganze, Thierry Munyeshuri, Pascal Niyonkuru and Jordan Yezakuzwe

Behind Munyakazi’s performance, Josue Tuyishime added 19 points, and Patrick Murwanashyaka had 7 points and 13 rebounds for Musanze.

On the side of UR Huye, Gabin posted a double-double (11PTS, 13 RBS ) and dished out 5 assists

In a post match interview with Rene Sahabu, He also upheld how special this game was for the relegation battle and the team’s approach to beat UR Huye at their own court.

He said,

” We have been preparing for this game for quite some good time. Everyone in this team knew the importance of this game, we don’t want to be relegated…we have to fight for our pride and today’s victory was a much-needed win.“

“We came in this game very determined, my boys fought, they showed character and at the end of the day, we came out victorious”

With the victory, the Musanze based club improves to 5-18 over the season and in their last two games of regular season, they will face Patriots and UR-CMHS.

RP-IPRC Musanze is a team that showcased young talents in Basketball and they always face challenges due to building a new team every season. The departure of Phenias Bagabo, Patrick Ngabonziza, Raphael Nzitonda, Patrick Rwema and many more, affected the team’s performance to the level of fighting for relegation. Things that they have to live with it since the coach is not assured of the continued services of key players like Munyakazi.

APR Basketball Club erase a 16-point deficit to come back and beat Espoir BBC 84-75 at Club Rafiki. A much-needed victory before they take on IPRC Musanze and Patriots.

After falling behind 33-20 in the first quarter, Cliff Owuor’s APR made some adjustments and fought back in the second quarter to cut the Espoir’s rhythm, going into the break trailing by eleven. 54-43.

Army side, APR started off the third quarter with their best offensive players in Philippe, William, Armel, Steven, and Balaban on the court. The latter, 2.13 m, a Serbian centre used his size and height to attack the rim as Espoir’s Musinga’s spirit was beginning to dwindle.

With 4 minutes left in the third quarter, Robeyns William and Philippe Kubanatubane hit back-to-back threes to cut the deficit and took the lead. 58-60 in front of Club Rafiki crowd supporting their home team.

Rafiki crowd didn’t disappoint as they kept pushing Espoir. Eric Shyaka hit a difficult mid-range shot with 22 seconds left in the third to put the score level. 66 points apiece.

Enock Isezerano’s foul with 1 second left sent Thierry Munyeshuri to the line. He made only the first and ended the third quarter with 1 point lead. 67-66 in favor of Espoir BBC.

Kenyan tactician’s team come from the short break very strong, playing strong defence in the last quarter, leading to offensive points and taking the lead to win against a scrappy and tired Espoir team. FT: 84-75 as APR BBC win/loss ratio improves to 14-3.

APR’s Robeyns William scored the team-high 21 points, Balaban Darko dropped 19 points in this Wednesday’s win over Espoir, added 17 rebounds and shot 8-of-9 from the field. His first ever double-double performance in Rwanda Basketball League.

Armel Sangwe and Philippe Kubanatubane contributed 13 and 15 points respectively.

On the side of Espoir, Thierry Munyeshuri scored a game-high 26 points in the loss whilst Fabrice Muhoza aka Musinga had a double-double with 10 points and 12 rebounds.

Speaking to Ground Sports after the game, APR BBC head Coach, Cliff Owuor appreciated the effort the team put in last night after falling far behind in the first quarter to come back and clinch the win against a highly-determined Espoir.

“We noticed these boys were running a lot and other than running, this was their home court. They shot the ball well…Almost all their attempts counted, everything they were putting up counted. So, we had to adjust to make sure that we force them to put the ball on the floor as in not to shot the ball in three, then in case they shot the ball, box out well,” Cliff Owuor said

He continued, ”we didn’t have to rush the ball because that was keeping them in tempo. We had to organize our game and just come in score 2 points if we got 2 points, 3 points if we have 3 points. And eventually, we overcame a deficit, took the lead and managed it well. We are grateful.”

Despite the win, the former champions had notable absentees with centres, Marius Ntwali and Arnaud Nkusi both injured, and Victoire Mutabaruka preparing for an exam.

In the next assignment, they take on RP-IPRC Musanze before facing the giant’s Patriots. However, the Kenyan gaffer expects to bring back his centres to prepare for the Patriots game accordingly as the latter added big man Kendall Gray to the roster.

In the statement released, the veteran point guard is proud of what he helped the Rwanda National Team accomplish on the court. He said, “I am grateful and proud that I gave it all.”

Mugabe, 34, left a legacy not only on the court but off-court too. During the 2022 BAL Final games, BAL honoured Aristide Mugabe for promoting the sport on the continent.

In 2021, With other famous Basketball personalities, Masai Ujiri, Luol Deng, Mark Tatum, and Mugabe were among the baby Gorilla namers. A great honour in a country of thousand hills.

Background

Aristide Mugabe started his Basketball journey in 2001 at EAV Ntendezi (high school) in Nyamasheke, a district in the Western Province of Rwanda. And his talent showed up soon to catch the eye of St Joseph Kabgayi scouts. In St Joseph, his potential manifested and started to shine at the high school level both in the country and in the East African region at large.

In 2007, Mugabe debuted his Basketball career in Rusizi BBC in Rwanda’s top-tier league. After two seasons, he joined Espoir BBC and two years later started to earn the National team call-ups.

In 2015, He signed for the Patriots and until now he is still loyal to this Kigali-based club where he serves as team captain. From 2013, he captained the National team until 2018.

February 26, 2022, in Dakar Arena, against Cameroon, Mugabe played his final international game for Rwanda.

Furthermore, history will remember him as the first captain to ever win a Basketball Africa League game. May 16, 2021, when Patriots beat Nigeria’s Rivers Hoopers.

Why is Mugabe admirable by everyone?

Apart from his ability to lead the game, Aristide Mugabe is kind, friendly, and a team player. He can carry the team with his long-range shoots and his skills to dish the ball very effectively.

A great leadership quality. He captained Espoir to win the league four times in a row between 2012 and 2015, before leading the Patriots to yet another 4 league titles.

Mugabe and Espoir BBC, claimed the 2012 FIBA Africa Zone 5 Club Championship in Kampala, Uganda, where he was named MVP.

There is no doubt that his character and success won the hearts of basketball lovers in Rwanda.
