In October 2021, he was inducted into the International Volleyball Hall of Fame, along with Logan Tom and Clay Stanley.
[3] Rogers attended San Marcos High School from 1987 to 1991, where he played indoor volleyball for Jon Lee.
Rogers, however, could not collect any prize money to keep his amateur status with the National Collegiate Athletic Association, as he was also competing with the UC Santa Barbara Gauchos while a student-athlete.
As with his previous partnership with Dax Holdren, Rogers played the overwhelming majority throughout this period with Scott, with the few exceptions being the start of the 2003 AVP Tour with Eli Fairfield for 2 tournaments, the 2005 AVP Austin Open with Reid Priddy, various teammates for the 2004 Best of the Beach and 2005 Las Vegas Shootout, and Phil Dalhausser for the 2005 Beach Volleyball World Championships before making a permanent switch to Dalhausser in 2006.
Despite their success, Rogers and Dalhausser finished the 2006 AVP season in second place, just six points shy of leaders Mike Lambert and Stein Metzger.
[19] In 2011 Rogers and Dalhauser set new single-season records for the most wins in a season on the FIVB, finishing the year as the world's number one ranked team.
In a straight-set defeat, Rogers and Dalhausser failed to defend their gold medal at the London 2012 Summer Olympics, ousted in the round of 16, by the young Italian team of Paolo Nicolai and Daniele Lupo.
[23] Rogers and his partner Dalhausser won the 2008 Beijing Olympics gold medal in men's beach volleyball, topping off a year that saw them win nearly every tournament they entered.
Early in 2016, Rogers was hired as head coach of the Cal Poly Women's Beach Volleyball team.
[24] Rogers has been inducted into the Santa Barbara Athletic Round Table Hall of Fame for his achievements in the sport of indoor and beach volleyball.
