Marian Women's Soccer Earns Four NAIA All-America Honors

KANSAS CITY, Mo. - On Tuesday, December 16, the NAIA released its 2025 Women's Soccer All-America Teams. The Marian women's soccer team was one of two schools tied with the most All-American recipients this year, as the Knights' quartet of Katie Koger, Marian Corro Celma, Kiley Jones, and Taylor Wert were each named as an NAIA All-American.

Marian led the Crossroads League in All-American nods, with Katie Koger and Marian Corro Celma being named to the First Team, while Kiley Jones was a Second Team All-American and Taylor Wert was a Third Team All-American. The Knights were one of three Crossroads League schools to earn All-American honors, with Grace receiving three and Indiana Wesleyan earning two.

William Carey was the only other program to join Marian with four NAIA All-Americans in 2025. Seven programs had three All-American honors in the 2025 season. 

Katie Koger headlines Marian's All-America haul, as the senior dominated on the pitch for the Knights, as she was named an NAIA All-American First Team honoree. Leading Marian in both goals and assists, Koger scored 35 points on the season, logging 14 goals and seven assists. Her final two assists of the season came in Marian's victory over Taylor in the NAIA Tournament Round of 16 match. Koger was the Crossroads League Player of the Year and a member of the league's first team, and was recently recognized in the classroom by being named to both the NAIA Scholar-Athlete and CSC Academic All-District lists. Koger was additionally named to the United Soccer Coaches All-America Team.

Marian Corro Celma joined Koger on the All-America First Team, earning her first career NAIA All-American nod. Corro Celma was the heart of Marian's midfield and finished her senior year as team captain, scoring seven points on the year with two goals and three assists. The senior played a role in Marian's 15 shutouts this season, and was named as an All-Crossroads League Midfielder as she was one of three players on the team to start and play in all 23 games. Corro Celma was named to the NAIA Scholar-Athlete list and was a member of the CSC Academic All-District Team. The native of Puebla, Mexico, was recently named to the United Soccer Coaches All-America Team.

Kiley Jones had a strong year for the Knights in her senior campaign, earning NAIA All-America Second Team honors, the first All-America award in her career. Jones was the third Knight joining Koger and Corro Celma to start each of the team's 23 contests, and had a strong season anchoring Marian's defense. Jones played a pivotal role in Marian's 15 shutouts from her defensive position, while getting involved on offense with two goals and five assists. Jones was named as a First Team All-Crossroads League honoree this season, adding her All-America honor to her mantle.

Rounding out Marian's All-American group is Taylor Wert, who earned Third Team All-America honors. Despite seeing her season get cut short due to injury in the postseason, Wert was the team's fourth-leading scorer, tacking on seven goals and three assists this season. The first-year Knight was an All-Crossroads League First Team member, and registered two multi-goal games and scored two game-winning goals this season.

Marian finished the 2025 season with an overall record of 20-1-2, the second-best mark in program history. The Knights were NAIA Tournament Quarterfinalists and won the Crossroads League Regular Season championship. 

The NAIA All-America Committee consists of the NAIA-Women's Soccer Coaches Association officers and seven additional women's soccer coaches. The 2025 Select Sport America-NAIA Women's Soccer National Coach of the Year will be announced in January.
