KANSAS CITY, Mo. - On Thursday morning, the NAIA announced its 2025-26 All-America Men's Golf Teams, as 45 student-athletes were honored as either First, Second, or Third Team All-Americans. The Marian men's golf team earned two of the 45 honors, as
Weston Ogden earned NAIA First Team All-America status, while
Lane Zedrick was named to the NAIA All-America Second Team.
Weston Ogden had a brilliant 2025-26 season, and his senior year ended with NAIA First Team All-America honors. Ogden's First Team All-America award is the second in program history as he joins Jay Williams, while the graduating Knight becomes just the third player in program history to be named a two-time All-America honoree, joining Zach Wolma (2004, 2005) and Trey Pfund (2010, 2013). Ogden won two tournaments in the 2025-26 season, with victories coming at the Midway Eagle Invite and the Bob Rohrman Invite, and saw a campaign play out where he finished in the top-12 of each tournament he completed. Through 28 rounds of golf, Ogden averaged a 70.1 per round, and earned four top-three performances.
Ogden's remarkable senior year ended with a fifth-place finish at the NAIA National Championship, where he helped lead the Knights to a program-record fourth-place finish at the national title meet.
Lane Zedrick had a big junior season, earning NAIA All-America Second Team honors. The All-America honor is the first in Zedrick's career, as he matched his teammate Ogden with a pair of victories that came at the IWU Sagamore Shootout and the Crossroads League Championship, and an additional four top-three finishes. Zedrick averaged a 71.0 per round this season, and ended the year with a 12th place finish at the NAIA National Championship.
The Association also recognized its 2025-26 Coach of the Year, Blake Trimble, head coach of the 2026 NAIA National Champion OCU Stars. Trimble coached the Stars to their seventh tournament title of the season in the national championship and their NAIA-best 12th Men's Golf Red Banner.
Oklahoma City, Keiser, and Webber International (Fla.) were the only schools represented by multiple players on the First Team, and both OCU and Keiser had four student-athletes honored across all teams. Webber, Dalton State (Ga.), and Reinhardt (Ga.) had three honorees each across all three teams.
Marian finished fourth at the NAIA National Championship after winning the program's fourth consecutive Crossroads League Championship in late April. Marian's fourth place finish at the NAIA Championship is the best ever for any member of the Crossroads League.
