About PING All-Americans
The GCAA began naming NCAA Division III All-Americans in 1975, with PING sponsoring the award since at least 1991.

Automatic additions from GCAA member schools to Honorable Mention if not previously named include top-15 finishers at the NCAA Division III Men’s Golf Championship and the top three players in each All-Region ballot.
