Motherwell celebrated a double after Jim Gannon and Lukas Jutkiewicz were named as the SPL Manager and Young Player of the Month for October respectively.
The Steelmen took eight points from four games last month, while 20-year-old Jutkiewicz, on loan from Everton, netted three times in those four matches.
A delighted Gannon said: "It's a pleasant surprise. I don't know how these awards are concluded, but to win it is great.
"I'm always a little bit bashful with individual awards, because it's really about what everyone has done over the course of the month.
"I'm really thankful for everyone's efforts."
The SPL Player of the Month award for October went to Hibernian midfielder Liam Miller.
