All about Quincy Wilson’s track and field career

Subsequently, he has bagged multiple junior-level honors, before bursting out into the international circuit. These include five 400m AAU Junior Olympic Games titles, the fifth one coming in 2022. While he clocked a 47.77 in the final, his semis time was a spectacular 47.59, which afforded him to surpass Obea Moore’s U14 national record that stood for 30 years.

In 2023, he ran a 46.67 at the New Balance Nationals Indoors, where he stood first on the grid. This became his first national title, a mega win for him. But what followed was an even more spectacular season, as 2024 was full of achievements for the runner. In January, he opened the year with a bang, with his 500m world record U-18 at the VA Showcase. Wilson had achieved this in just 1:01.27 minutes. Come February, he won the 600m event at the Millrose Games, followed by defending his New Balance Nationals Indoor time in March by registering a 45.76 victory.

The same month, he again stunned the world with his showdown at the Florida Relays. His 45.19 seconds 400m dash there was the quickest U.S. time that year, across levels. Next up, he ran a 45.13 in June, at the New Balance Outdoors, shortly before the U.S. Olympic Trials started.

Moreover, at Hayward Field for the all-important Track and Field trials, Quincy Wilson was in great form. And that zest reflected in his performances too, for his 400m sprint there set a new U-18 world record, with 44.66 seconds on the clock. With this, he overtook Darrell Robinson, who had been holding that top position for 42 years. And just two days after that, he bested his own timings, running a 44.59 in the semi-finals, amounting to another record.

Although he failed to sail through to the Olympics in the 400m category, falling short in the finals, he will still be debuting in Paris. As Wilson was selected to be a part of the 4x400m men’s relay team.
