TUTER INDUCTED

UC Irvine women’s basketball coach Molly Tuter will be inducted into the inaugural Alaska High School Hall of Fame on Sunday in Anchorage, Alaska.

Tuter, who completed her first full season as the Anteaters’ coach, led Soldotna High to the 1993 state 4-A championship and was twice named the Gatorade State High School Basketball Player of the Year. She was also named All-Region III in girls’ volleyball and qualified for the state track meet in the 400 meters and the 800 relay in 1993.

Tuter, who played for the WNBA’s Phoenix Mercury before becoming an assistant coach at UCLA, was rated No. 16 in Sports Illustrated’s 50 Greatest 20th Century Alaskan Sports Figures in 1999.

At Arizona State, Tuter scored 1,374 points ? third on the school’s all-time list. She’s also in the top three in career steals (221) and three-pointers (116).

A two-time All-Pac-10 honorable mention selection for Arizona State, Tuter led UC Irvine to the Big West Tournament this past season.
