Mean Machine led 5-3 at the break after a try by winger Charles Kinyanjui who put his side ahead after Eliud Mulakoli had scored a penalty to hand USIU the lead before the clock hit the quarter hour mark.
Mulakoli would restore USIUs lead with another penalty before the returning Charles Kuka kept the scoreboard ticking with another three points following a drop goal.
