Uganda and Senegal are the only two sides to have played two games in the Africa Gold Cup thus far.
John Duncan’s charges played their second game on the road in Dakar over the weekend and a 17-16 win was enough to see them climb to the summit of the six-team log.
Uganda has collected 6 points from their opening two games of the campaign and leapfrogged Zimbabwe to top spot.
Having started the campaign with a 33-all draw with the Kenya Simbas, the Rugby Cranes went to Senegal and subjected the West African to their second straight loss in front of their home crowd.
Senegal had earlier fallen to the Zimbabwe Sables in their first game of the continental showpiece.
Last year’s winners, Namibia opened their account with a huge 53-7 win over newly promoted Tunisia.
Namibia now occupy second spot, tied with Zimbabwe on five points but the defending champions boast a better points difference.
Kenya are fourth while newly promoted Senegal and Tunisia are fifth and sixth respectively.
The Gold Cup returns this weekend with Kenya hosting Tunisia in Nairobi while Senegal travel to Windhoek for a clash with Namibia.
