Preston Tuggle is Truett-McConnell’s Inside-Out Engine
In the 2025-26 season, Preston Tuggle has emerged as a reliable two-way frontcourt anchor for Truett-McConnell, averaging 11.4 points and 6.6 rebounds per game while shooting 53.4% from the field.[2][13] He’s shown real upward trajectory from 2024-25, when he played in 27 games and averaged 3.2 points and 2.4 rebounds, and he’s already delivered big nights like a 24-point, 15-rebound outburst and multiple double-doubles.[2] The appeal is simple: he scores efficiently, rebounds with force, and gives steady interior production without needing the ball a ton—exactly the kind of rugged, improving big you can plug into a competitive lineup.[2][3][5]
