The competitive nature of the lower National Super League side is not only in the race for promotion.

Top four teams, Ushuru, Vihiga United, Wazito and KCB are separated by only two points, leaving them all angling for promotion to the Kenyan Premier League next season with only three games left to the end of the season.

But a tight race is also being experienced in the top scorers' chart with Ushuru striker, Benson Amianda and KCB’s Simon Abuko breathing hot on the heels of league top scorer, Patrick Okullo.
