In 1991, Brown received the Arnold Palmer Award as Wake Forest's top male student-athlete. An alternate on the 1996 U.S. Olympic track and field team, he ran for his father's native country, Trinidad and Tobago, in the 2000 Olympic games in Sydney and advanced through the first round of the 110-meter hurdles.
