Named at Sacred Heart Academy in Louisville during the Kentucky All-State Games, McCuiston and other honorees will now be considered by the National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA) for the National Coach of the Year consideration. The Coach of the Year award is broken into three categories: Small Public School, (Mickey McCuiston), Large Public School, greater than 800 enrollment - Bo Lankster, Lexington Tates Creek, and Private School, Steve Fugman, Lexington Christian Academy.

During the meeting coaches and members of the KHSCA association nominate deserving coaches.

Afterwards a vote of the membership is conducted and the coach receiving the highest total is given the award.

“I was surprised and honored to receive the award, especially since it was bestowed upon me by my coaching peers. I consider this is to be a true team award and points to the success of the team and how hard everyone worked to reach the goals we had coming into the season. The parents and players should also be commended for a job well done,” McCuiston said.
