Wilson Kopondo returns to action, starting from the bench as Kenya Harlequin named their side to play Catholic Monks in a Kenya Cup match day eight fixture tonight at the Impala Club.
Kopondo has not been in action since captaining Kenya at the Rugby World Cup Africa qualifiers in July last year. Former Kenya Sevens international Sidney Ashioya also returns to action after a long spell out.
Catholic Monks are without scrum half Caleb Kiprotich who limped off injured in last weekend’s 15-33 loss to Blak Blad
