Southampton's Tonda Eckert has been named the Championship's manager of the month for March.
The Saints went unbeaten in the league last month, winning three and drawing one of their four games including a victory at the leaders Coventry.
The Sky Blues' Frank Lampard, Matt Bloomfield of Oxford United and West Brom interim boss James Morrison were also nominated.
Eckert also won the award in February when Southampton were again unbeaten and have continued their good form into April, moving into the play-off places as well as reaching the semi-finals of the FA Cup.
