NAIROBI, Kenya, Apr 13 – Kenya Pipeline crushed out of the 2017 Women’s African Club Championship quarter finals after going down 3-2 (13-25, 28-26,25-19, 23-25,15-13) to arch rivals Kenya Prisons on Thursday in Monastir-Tunisia.

The loss leaves a jinxed Pipeline with yet another disappointing face running into 13 years of waiting for a first Africa’s most prestigious club competition title since 2005.

This historic match divided Kenyan Volleyball audience right in the middle but it lived to its billing as one of the top games in this year’s competition, pitting two of Africa’s top sides.

Pipeline came into the opening set with poisonous venom and a lot of confidence having beaten their oppoenents to three league titles back at home. The venom temporarily incapacitated the five time African champions but they quickly applied an anti-dot in the subsequent sets of the five set thriller match which kept fans on the edge of their seats.
