In his first season in a starting role, Tucker gets his All-American honor after a breakout sophomore campaign where he often covered the opposing team’s top attackman. Tucker’s 47 caused turnovers are tied with Ternahan for the team lead, while his 65 groundballs is third best for the Gulls.

Tucker was a major contributor in the Gulls’ national championship, won last month over Tufts in the final at Lincoln Financial Field.
