Track and Field Legend Predicts Quincy Wilson’s Future Days After the 17-Year-Old Broke NCAA Curse at New Balance Grand Prix

2 min read

Nobody may have expected to see the turns of events. On January 17, Quincy Wilson entered the VA Showcase 2025. After his fireworks in the Paris Olympics last year, the men’s 500m race at VA Showcase was scheduled to be his season opener this year. So expectations were high on him. The track and field fans were excited to see him in a similar form as in the Paris Olympics. But things didn’t fall into place for the 17-year-old. 

Quincy was handed a thumping defeat in the men’s 600m race. Meanwhile, Andrew Salvodon claimed the glory in the event. He took 1:00.49 minutes to cross the finishing line in the event. His timing set the US high school national record. In the meantime, Quincy saw his opponent taking away the limelight he had been habituated to attain in the events. He had to bounce back. But how?

On this matter, Rodney Green has something to share. The former Bahamian athlete has been monitoring Quincy Wilson throughout the years. He knows the exact pressure points of the athlete and his comeback process as well. This knowledge aided his prediction of the Bullis High School attendee’s prospects. 

On February 6, Justin Gatlin shared a clip on Instagram from his podcast, Ready Set Go. There, in the podcast, Green said, “I’m worried about how he will bounce back from the losses that he take and he took that L obviously was a wake-up call for him.”
