NOTRE DAME, Ind. – Former Notre Dame goalkeeper Philip Tuttle (Hooksett, N.H.) was selected in Tuesday’s Major League Soccer (MLS) Supplemental Draft. The San Jose Earthquakes took Tuttle in the second round with the 33rd overall pick.
Tuttle came back from a knee injury suffered over the summer, while training with the Earthquakes, to start 13 matches for the Irish during the 2010 campaign. He posted a 7-4-2 record with two shutouts. Tuttle notched a 1.11 goals-against average and a .746 save percentage. He was named to the BIG EAST weekly honor roll on Oct. 25 after holding fifth-ranked Connecticut scoreless for 110 minutes in a 0-0 draw.
For his career, Tuttle played in 33 games, including 29 starts. He registered a 16-10-4 record with nine clean sheets. Tuttle compiled a 0.98 goals-against average and a .742 save percentage. He earned three monograms while at Notre Dame.
Tuesday’s draft consisted of three rounds and 54 total picks.
Notre Dame’s Jeb Brovsky, Bilal Duckett and Steven Perry were selected in last Thursday’s MLS SuperDraft. Brovsky and Duckett were picked by the expansion Vancouver Whitecaps FC, while the New England Revolution selected Perry. Brovsky (M) was the first pick in the second round (19th overall selection) and Duckett (D) was the first pick in the third round (37th overall).
