The Lions advanced to the NCAA Regionals in Bryan, Texas hosted by Texas A&M, the program's first NCAA Tournament appearance since 2013.
In his fifth year with the team, Kuehn led the team with 74.08 stroke average. The St. Louis Catholic High School grad also had 16 of 25 rounds where he shot 74 or lower.
Kuehn, a business management major, accumulated a 3.0 GPA to earn his way on to Tuesday's team. He was joined on the first team by Southland Student-Athlete of the Year Nicholls' Ryan O'Neill, Francis Marion's Michael Rials, HBU's Ben Haton and UNO's Brady Bennett.
