Brown, Skip

Skip Brown
- Induction:
- 1992
From the moment that he stepped on the playing floor as a starter in his first game at Wake Forest, Skip Brown was one of the most popular and respected Demon Deacon basketball standouts of any era. Brown, who would go on to start every game he played in a Wake uniform, twice earned All-America recognition, first as a sophomore in 1975 then as a senior in 1977. He was a first team All-ACC pick both of those years as well.
On the school's career lists, Brown's name is included among the top 10 in 10 categories, including field goals made (first), assists (third), and scoring (fifth).
During his four seasons, he led the Deacs in scoring, field-goal and free-throw percentage and steals at least once. He is also the only player ever to lead Wake in assists in four years. Brown capped off an outstanding career by helping to lead the Deacons to their first NCAA bid in 15 years in 1977.
Brown was inducted into the Wake Forest Sports Hall of Fame on Jan. 18, 1992.
