Quincy Wilson, at just 16, made history by becoming the youngest male Olympian in U.S. track and field history during the Paris Olympics, completing his first leg in the men’s 4x400-meter relay in 47.27 seconds. Despite not being at his best and finishing nearly three seconds off his personal record, Wilson's team secured third place, qualifying for the finals with a time of 2:59.15. Wilson previously broke the under-18 world record in the 400 meters, showcasing his remarkable talent, as he was faster at his age than Usain Bolt. His participation marks a significant milestone for U.S. athletics, surpassing the record held since 1904 by Arthur Newton. With strong performances from his teammates, Wilson remains a hopeful contender for a medal in the finals. The experience is still surreal for Wilson, who expressed gratitude for his teammates and family support during this historic moment.
