Teenage sprinting sensation Quincy Wilson is set to become the youngest ever US male track Olympian after the 16-year-old announced he had reportedly been picked in the 4x400 meter relay roster for this year’s Olympic Games in Paris. “The call came directly to me from USA Track & Field,” Lee told USA Today. Wilson’s selection comes after a brilliant debut at the US Olympic Trials last week, where he twice broke a 400m world record. Born in 2008, Wilson has quickly established himself as one of the most promising rising stars in track and field. The sprinter seems to break a record whenever he runs and now looks set for a chance to prove himself on the world stage.
