Among Duke's track team are two familiar names for those who follow football at the school.

They are DeVon Edwards and Ryan Smith.

Edwards, a safety, and Smith, a wide receiver, will compete at the Penn Relays in Philadelphia this weekend, according to Brett Friedlander of Star News Online. Edwards, who is an All-ACC performer, has an impressive, 10.73-second time in the 100 meters to his name.

"I’m happy for them and I think it’s great for Duke track and field," head coach David Cutcliffe said in a teleconference, via Friedlander.

It's kind of Coach Cutcliffe to share his speediest playmakers with the rest of Duke athletics.
