Kenneth "Unbelieveable" Mokgojoa

Kenneth Mokgojoa was already a legend in his native South Africa when he joined the Dips for the 1978 season. In 1977, he scored 88 goals for Benoni United, earning South African POY honors.

His impact with the Dips was immediate as he set a club record by scoring in six straight games during his first year in the NASL. Mokgojoa made a major impression on Minnesota Kicks forward Ricardo Alonso during a 1979 match, stating Gordon Bradley, "loco if he not play him more."

Currently, Mr. Mokgojoa is sharing his vast talents at Monash University in Johannesburg.
