Quinton Brown, a wide receiver on the Syracuse football team, will join the track team once spring football ends on April. He actually joined the track team in time for last weekend’s Syracuse Invitational, but decided not to continue for now with only one regular season meet remaining in the winter season.Brown had been practicing for a few weeks, but was not added to the official roster until right before the meet.Syracuse track and field head coach Chris Fox thinks the sophomore can make a difference for the track team immediately.’If he does even close to what he did in high school, he’s going to help us,’ Fox said.Brown hopes to run the 200-meter and 100-meter dashes in the outdoor season, and he believes running track will help him become a better football player in the future.’It’s going to help my speed,’ Brown said. ‘Football has a great strength and training program, but I just wanted another edge to compete for a starting spot.’Brown has been low on the wide receiver depth chart in his two seasons at SU. After catching five passes for minus-1 yard his freshman season, he had no receptions in 2005. He had one rush for six yards last season.Brown won a Maryland state championship in the 55-meter indoor hurdles and placed third in the state in the 110-meter hurdles as a junior at Fredrick Douglass High School in Upper Marlboro, Md.Among the spectators at Manley this weekend were many of Brown’s football teammates who came out to cheer him on. Brown said their support is important to him even though they joke about what he’s doing.’They think I’m crazy for doing both sports,’ Brown said.
