In front of their eyes / a prize

Is that correct writing "had in front of their eyes" should there be an a before prize?

thanks..

But now, about dozens of hackers who met last week at the College of Management and they tried to penetrate the cyber defense system and had in front of their eyes, a prize of 100,000$ for those who would succeed.
