WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. - Steve Brown, who is a Wake Forest Sports Hall of Famer and was a two-sport star at Wake Forest, joined the Deac2Deac Podcast this week. In track, Brown was a four-time ACC champion, twice winning the 110-meter outdoor hurdles and twice claiming the indoor 55-meter title. A native of Washington, D.C., Brown came to Wake Forest in 1987 and became a four-year starter in football. In 2002, he was named to the ACC's 50th Anniversary Men's Outdoor Track and Field team.
Brown finished second in the outdoor 110 meter hurdles at the 1990 NCAA Track and Field Championship. As a wide receiver, he caught 122 career passes with three touchdowns. Brown was Wake's second-leading receiver in each of his final three seasons of football.
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.
Brown was inducted into the Wake Forest Sports Hall of Fame on Sept. 19, 2009.
