Paris Olympic gold medalist Quincy Wilson recently graced the Saturday Night Football clash between the Baltimore Ravens and Buffalo Bills. WNBA star Angel Resse and fellow Olympic gold medalist Masai Russell accompanied him.
At 16, Wilson became the youngest ever Team USA male athlete to compete in an Olympic track and field event. At the Paris Olympics, he joined Vernon Norwood, Bryce Deadmon, Christopher Bailey, and Rai Benjamin. Running the first leg of the men's 4x400m relay heats, he contributed to the team's qualification for the final by settling in third place.
Following the Paris victory, Wilson has been navigating a series of events, including receiving the honor of throwing the first pitch for the Baltimore Orioles. The American sprinter recently graced the M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore, Maryland for a Saturday Night Football clash between the Ravens and Bills.
He was seen savoring the lively night with the LSU Basketball forward Reese. Wilson made an appearance at the faceoff in a Baltimore Ravens jersey and proudly flaunted his Olympic gold medal. He was seen sharing a hug with Ravens' wide receiver Zay Flowers.
Wilson and Russell embraced the energetic game night, as the Olympians showcased their medals while cheering for the Ravens.
Quincy Wilson praises Masai Russell on having an incredible rookie season
Quincy Wilson recently lauded Masai Russell following the latter's successful rookie season.
Wilson and Russell both attended Bullis School in Potomac, Maryland. While Russell graduated in 2018 before moving to the University of Kentucky, Wilson has yet to graduate. The 16-year-old frequently refers to the 100m hurdles Olympic champion as "bis sis."
Both the Bullis School athletes trained under coach Joe Lee, who has been serving on the school track and field team for 12 years. Russell took to social media to express her joy with her recent achievements.
"Rookie season was a dream 🤝🏽," Russell wrote. "God showed me just a preview of what’s to come. See yall on the track next season."
Wilson replied in the comment section with an emoji of a queen's crown.
Although Quincy Wilson only competed in the 4x400m relay heats at the Paris Games, he secured the gold medal by extension, becoming the youngest track and field Olympic gold medalist in history.
