“There is no better compliment that a coach can have for a player than trust. I have trusted Daniel to start every game over the past four years and gave him the green light to shoot and make plays at will. Through his leadership over those four years the team went 90-26 with 3 conference championships, 3 district championships, I regional championship and a trip to the 6A Final Four. None of these accomplishments are possible without Daniel Kuhl. He will be missed at Winter Springs and an asset to Pfeiffer University on the court, on campus and in the community” said Winter Springs High School Head Coach Travis Jones.
Kuhl was a Seminole Athletic Conference selection as a sophomore, junior and senior, and selected as a Winter Park Rotary Tournament First team selection in 2008 and again in 2009. Daniel was rated in the Top 100 Players in the Country by National Underclassmen Basketball Report, and ranked by Eddie Oliver and Hoops USA, a national player ranking throughout the United States as a senior. Kuhl was rated as the 9th best player in Florida by BreakDown Magazine, was an Orlando Sentinel Top 25 Player to Watch in the state of Florida, rated by Hoop Scoop Online as one of the best players in Florida, and rated as the 32nd best player in Florida by the Miami Tropics Report.
“Daniel has great size for a freshman guard, and a dynamic skill set that will help us immediately”, stated Falcon head coach Jeremy Currier. “To get a smart, multi-faceted player that can make everyone around him better is a special thing, and he is someone that can come in and help us right away. Daniel’s Dad played in the ACC, and uncles played major Division I basketball- he comes from great basketball pedigree- and he has been winning for the last four years in the highly competitive Florida 6A high school league. We are thrilled to have Daniel join us at Pfeiffer University.”
