Erika Rucker has plenty of memories from her six years of running competitively. The Flowery Branch grad and current University of South Carolina athlete said one of the greatest moments came when she achieved a personal best in the 400 at the Junior National Championships. It was her second-place finish at that meet, however, that has opened the door to what is sure to be a memory that will trump them all.
