JKL Lady Dolphins put on a dominant show to beat Victoria She Crocs 80-53 in a National Basketball League game at Lugogo Indoor Arena on Sunday.
They set the pace early, moving the ball well and defending with intent to take control of the contest.

The She Crocs showed some fight after the break, winning the third quarter to cut the gap, but JKL quickly regained control in the final period to run out comfortable winners.
Evelyn Nakiyingi led the way with a solid double-double of 22 points and 19 rebounds, controlling the paint on both ends. Her presence gave JKL the edge throughout the game.
