Moroka Swallows striker Katlego Mashego has won the 2012/13 Absa Premiership Top Goalscorer award.

Mahoota signed for the Birds as a free agent at the start of the season after spending two weeks on trial.

His 13 league goals were enough to win the goalscorer's title, although it could have been more had he been awarded the deflected goal against Tuks and the disallowed spot-kicks against Chiefs.

His contribution infront of goal saw Swallows within touching distance of a top-eight finish.

He will collect his accolade and a cool R25 000 in prize money; at the Premier Soccer League (PSL) award ceremony on Sunday.
