Tucker Peabody

I just wanted to start a thread on this kid. He is a 19 year old American sprinter out of Tennessee. He was a Tennessee state champion in the 200 and has a pb of 10.5 in the 100 but I don't know if it was wind-aided.
He has a personal indoor best of 21.14 which puts him in the top 30 sprinters in the world this year. Considering he is 19 he might be one to look out for in the future as with Adam Gemili, Kilty and Robertson. He runs for some small obscure Tennessee college I have never heard of. I would love to see what he does outdoors this year.

Tucker Peabody recently achieved a significant breakthrough in reducing his PB by .35 seconds in the 200 meter sprint running a time of 20.69. As of last week, this time was the 16th best in Division I. If he can duplicate this performance in the NCAA East preliminaries in late May, he might make it to the NCAAs in Eugene in June.
