Benedictine’s Rashad Beckham Named 2025 Rimington Award Winner
The Heart of America Athletic Conference is proud to recognize Benedictine College senior Rashad Beckham, who has been named the 2025 Rimington Award winner, honoring the nation's top center across the NAIA, FCS, NCAA Division II, and NCAA Division III levels.
Beckham, a senior from Oceanside, California, earned All-America honors from both the Victory Sports Network and the AFCA during the 2025 season. A four-year starter for the Ravens, he started all 50 games of his collegiate career at center, never missing a contest.
During the 2025 season, Beckham anchored an offensive line that allowed just four sacks while helping power an offense that averaged 476.6 yards per game. His performance helped Benedictine earn national recognition and further showcased the strength of football within the Heart of America Athletic Conference.
The Rimington Award is coordinated by Victory Sports Network founder Jason Dannelly and is presented annually following a nationwide nomination and evaluation process involving coaches, scouts, and media members.
