The 2025 season ended last week with Washington lifting the College Cup trophy in a thrilling golden goal victory. 

That brings us to the TopDrawerSoccer post-season awards, based on several factors, including individual performance, statistical accomplishments, conference honors, and team success. Analyzing the entirety of the 2025 season, from kick-off in week one to the final whistle at the national championship game, here are your award winners for the men’s college soccer season

Courtesy of becoming the first freshman in history to win the College Player of the Year Award, Grand Canyon striker Junior Diouf also takes home the Freshman of the Year honor.

The Coach of the Year recognition goes to Jamie Clark of Washington. The 15-year head coach comprehensively did the best job of any coach in the country, leading a team that had to play all six tournament games on the road, defying all odds by traveling back and forth across the United States to make history. Behind that push was a carefully constructed 29-player roster that featured just three transfers, one international talent, and 20 players from the state.

Check out the All-American teams below.
