At today’s Lakeland City Commissioners meeting, Kanu was honored by Mayor Bill Mutz with an official proclamation that November 18, 2019 is Uchenna Kanu Day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kanu was honored for becoming college soccer’s all-time leader in career goals at a single school, as well as earning four international caps over the summer at the FIFA Women’s World Cup with Nigeria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“This has been an incredible season for me and I really appreciate the city for honoring me,” said Kanu. “I will be on the phone with my family later to celebrate the day and share it with them.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Abia, Nigeria native broke the record with her 149th<\/sup> career goal on November 2nd<\/sup> in a win at USC Beaufort. Since then, she’s increased her record to 153 total goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“She’s embraced our community whole-heartedly and has been a tremendous representation of Lakeland,” said coach Randy Belli<\/a> during the ceremony at City Hall. “Being in the World Cup was such a promotion for our University and the community, with millions of people around the world watching, Lakeland, Florida was called out because of her using her God-given talents to represent her school and community well.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
