Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 77933, member: 636"] Kenyan President William Ruto gave Harambee Stars coach Benni McCarthy a major national award. The Head of State Commendation recognized McCarthy's impact on the country's soccer program. The honor occurred during Kenya's Jamhuri Day independence celebrations. McCarthy led the national team to the quarter-finals in a recent African tournament. That result marked the deepest run Kenya has ever made in a major international competition. A football official stated the award reflects the discipline and belief McCarthy instilled in the squad. Since taking the coaching job, McCarthy's record shows six wins, five losses, and three draws across fourteen matches. The government's recognition also thanked national leadership for supporting the sport's development overall. [/QUOTE]
