MADISON, Wis. – Chris Mueller has assembled quite the list of honors over his four-year career with the Wisconsin men's soccer team. He's a two-time All-Region honoree, a two-time All-Big Ten First Team member, and a Big Ten Offensive Player of the Year award winner.

Thursday, the United Soccer Coaches Association added two-time All-American to Mueller's list.

Not only did Mueller become the first in program history to earn second-team All-America honors, he also became the first two-time All-American in UW annals.

Starting 21 games for the Badgers this past season, Mueller led the nation in both assists (20) and assists-per-game (.95). The Schaumburg, Illinois native led the Big Ten in points (38), while also leading the league in shots (72) and shots on goal (30).

The 2017 Big Ten Offensive Player of the Year finished eighth all-time in career goal scoring (22) at Wisconsin and set the school record for assists in a season (19), a record that stood since 1981. With 35 career assists, Mueller finished just four shy of UW legend Kevin Kullby's all-time career record. Mueller ranks fourth in school history in career points (79) and finished third all-time in career shots (182).
