Shannon Tuttle, a 5-foot-11 setter on the Notre Dame High girls’ volleyball team, has signed a letter of intent to attend the University of Notre Dame.

Tuttle earned second-team All-Southern Section 4-A Division honors the past two seasons and was the Mission League most valuable player this past season for the league champion Knights.

Ryan Wilson of Agoura High has been added to the elite boys’ mile field in the Sunkist Invitational on Feb. 15 at the Sports Arena.

The Charger junior is coming off a cross-country season in which he won the Southern Section Division II title, placed second in the state Division II meet and finished third in the Kinney West regional.

Wilson ran 4 minutes 22.61 seconds in the 1,600 meters as a sophomore.

Corey Ihmels of Williston High in North Dakota, Jeff Wilson of Newbury Park and Angel Martinez of San Gabriel, the first-, second- and fourth-place finishers in the Kinney national meet in December, are some of the leading entrants in the race billed as the national high school indoor championship.
