Tuttle was part of an Irvine squad that had one of its better seasons in several years. The team went 17-9 overall and was 7-3 in the Pacific Coast League and finished third.

The team made the CIF playoffs and won a game.

Tuttle, a forward, averaged 10.9 points, 6.0 rebounds and 1.7 steals a game.
