17/03/17 HIBERNIAN TRAINING CENTRE - TRANENT Hibernian striker Jason Cummings is presented with the Ladbrokes Championship Player of the Month award for February

The 21-year-old scored three league goals last month – against Ayr United, Raith Rovers and Dunfermline Athletic – and got another in the Scottish Cup fifth-round victory over Hearts.

It is the second time this season Cummings has won the player of the month award after he earned the accolade back in August. He won it once last season, in October 2015.

Cummings is suspended for tomorrow’s home match against Dumbarton after being sent off in last week’s 1-0 win over Dundee United. The striker also scored his 20th goal of the season in that match at Tannadice to take his career total to 68 in all competitions for Hibs.
