Pennsauken’s Bryce Tucker, a Rutgers sophomore, opened his outdoor season with a 400 PR at a meet in Tampa.
Tucker ran 47.43 at the University of South Florida Invitational, lowering his PR from 47.53 last month at an indoor meet in Boston. His previous outdoor PR was 48.16 last April in Gainesville.
Tucker didn’t run his specialty, the 400-meter intermediates, in the season opener in Tampa, but he ranks 2nd in Rutgers history with his 50.61 from his win at the Big Ten Championships this past May in Ann Arbor, Mich.
