Kuehn shot even-par 72 today and finished the 54-hole event at 11-under 205 (70-63-72), which tied the third-lowest total in tournament history. The junior from Asheville set the women's course record, Wake Forest's 18-hole record and the tournament single-round record on Saturday with a bogey-free, 9-under-par 63.
She eagled the third and fifth holes today, but was 1 over on her round through 16 before making a birdie 4 on the 17th hole. That birdie gave her the one-stroke victory over Duke's Erica Shepherd, who shot 70 today and 10-under 206 for the tournament.

Virginia Tech gave the ACC a sweep of the top three at 5 under, Alabama was fourth at 2 under and Duke and Kentucky shared fifth place at 1 under par.
