HUNTINGTON, W.Va. – The Marshall men's golf team had five players honored as All-American Scholar athletes by the Golf Coaches Association of America (GCAA), the organization announced Friday.
 
Earning the awards were redshirt seniors Matt Hoffman and Cameron Root, senior Brad Plaziak, junior Kyle Mitchell and sophomore Tyler Jones. Root, Plaziak and Mitchell are repeat winners, garnering the honors in 2020. Hoffman and Jones were named for the first time in their careers.
 
"It is great to have 5 players receive All-America Scholar awards," head coach Matt Grobe said. "Cameron, Brad, and Kyle all repeated the award and that shows how consistent they have been in their careers both on the course and in the classroom. Tyler has had a great first two years at Marshall and this is yet another award to show his dedication to golf and academics. Matt had set this award as his goal several years ago and I am so happy for him that he was able to achieve it in his final year with us. These guys have really been leaders for us on and off the course and I am so happy for them all to receive this award."
 
Hoffman is a five-time member of the Conference USA Commissioner's Honor Roll and received the Academic Medal in 2021 for a cumulative GPA of 3.75 or better. He finished the year with a 3.88 GPA while working on his master's in business administration. The Westerville, Ohio native competed in six events in his final season and was named C-USA Men's Golfer of the Week on April 22 after leading Marshall at the Wright State Invitational. Hoffman was also the Herd's top finisher at the Mountaineer Invitational. He competed in 19 events during his Marshall career.
 
Root is also a five-time member of the C-USA Commissioner's Honor Roll for a cumulative GPA of 3.00 or better. He finished the year with a 3.38 GPA also working on his master's in business administration. The Columbus, Ohio native played in five events. He shot a season-best 71 in the second round of the Conference USA Championships. Root competed in 28 total tournaments during his time with Marshall.
 
Plaziak is a four-time member of the C-USA Commissioner's Honor Roll and received the Academic Medal in 2019. He finished the academic year with a 3.64 GPA in finance. The Atlanta, Ga., native competed in four events this past year for the Herd and saw steady improvement in the Pinehurst Intercollegiate and the Wright State Invitational. Plaziak will be back as a graduate student with the Herd for the 2021-22 season.
 
Mitchell is a three-time member of the C-USA Commissioner's Honor Roll. He finished the past academic year with a 3.43 GPA as a management major in earning his second consecutive Academic All-America honors.
 
Jones is a two-time member of the C-USA Commissioner's Honor Roll and has earned the Academic Medal twice. He finished the academic year with a 4.00 as a management major and was named to the C-USA All-Academic Team in April. The Westerville, Ohio native played in six events this spring and led the team with a 73.33 stroke average. Jones had two top 10 finishes and was the top finisher for Marshall five times.
