Luton Town midfielder Cameron McGeehan has been named the PFA Fans' Player of the Month for February in Sky Bet League Two.
McGeehan scored three goals in five league games as Luton secured 10 points from a possible 15 in February.
The 20-year-old secured 76.3 per cent of the vote to beat off competition from Barnet striker John Akinde (13.2 per cent) and Northampton forward James Collins (10.5 per cent), who were also on the final three-man shortlist.
This was reduced from an initial 12-man shortlist that included Billy Kee (Accrington Stanley), Charlie Wyke (Carlisle), Danny Hylton (Oxford United), Jordan Bowery (Oxford United), Lyle Taylor (AFC Wimbledon), Marc Richards (Northampton), Piero Mingoia (Accrington), Ryan Brunt (Plymouth) and Scott Boden (Newport County).
Every month throughout the English football season, fans will have the opportunity to vote on skysports.com for who they think has been the best player in the Barclays Premier League, Sky Bet Championship, Sky Bet League One and Sky Bet League Two, after Sky Sports teamed up with the PFA to be the digital platform for the Awards.
Before the vote opens each month, an expert panel produce a shortlist of contenders. Fans are then able to vote for the player they think deserves the award.
The panel includes Sky Sports football pundits Paul Merson, Ian Holloway and Peter Beagrie.
That trio are joined by Mike Riley, general manager of Professional Game Match Officials, and Malcolm Clarke, chairman of the Football Supporters Federation, as well as the winning fan from each month.
