The 2020 NAIA PING All-America Teams were released this afternoon by the Golf Coaches Association of America, and four members of the OUAZ men's golf team were honored by the GCAA.

In the seven events he played this season, Hofman recorded three outright medallist awards and he tied for the top spot on two other occasions. He averaged 70.05 strokes per round with 15 of his 20 rounds played being under par.

Vandermoten has five top-three finishes in seven events played and he was ranked fifth in the final NAIA Golf Stat rankings. Vandermoten played 12 of his 20 rounds under par and averaged 71.45 strokes per round.

Williams played in seven events and recorded five top-five results. His 72.42 stroke average was helped by nine of his 19 rounds being played under par. Williams was ranked 16th in the final NAIA Golf Stat rankings.

Domecq finished his season with a 73.45 stroke average and seven of 20 rounds under par.
