In this story:


Class of 2023 defensive back Zion Tracy has released his top four, and Syracuse made the cut. Tracy's top four includes Buffalo, Penn State, Rutgers and Syracuse. Tracy will officially visit Syracuse the weekend of October 28th when the Orange hosts Notre Dame. 

Zion Tracy, who is playing for St. Thomas More in Connecticut this season, is originally from Long Island. Syracuse expressed interest in Tracy towards the end of the 2022 cycle, but did not have a scholarship available. Tracy reclassified to 2023 and has attracted a lot of attention as teams take not of his elite speed and athleticism. 

Tracy participated in Syracuse camp over the summer and displayed that superb athleticism along with change of direction, smoothness in his back pedal and strong instincts in coverage. He even ran a 4.4 40-time on a field that saw most run a bit slower than their norm, showing his elite speed to go along with above average length.

"It was great," Tracy said after the camp. "They (Syracuse coaches) said I was the best athlete there. They taught me a lot about defensive back," Tracy said. "They coached me like I'm their own already"

Tracy previously took an official to Rutgers in July and is headed to Penn State this weekend.

Title: Publisher All Syracuse Education: Roberts Wesleyan College Location: Syracuse, New York Expertise: Syracuse basketball, football and recruiting.  EXPERIENCE Mike McAllister has been covering Syracuse basketball, football and recruiting for more than a decade. Mike's career started with his own free blog as a way to vent following sporting events. Shortly thereafter, a network of basketball sites called Coast 2 Coast Hoops asked him to run their Syracuse site. That site was called Nation of Orange, and Mike quickly established it as a go-to for Syracuse fans.  After running Nation of Orange for several months, a position with the Syracuse site on the Scout network became available. After one year as the recruiting expert with Cuse Nation, he was named the publisher. Mike oversaw the transition from Scout to 247Sports, and ran the site on that network for years.  Presented with the opportunity to join one of the biggest names in the sports journalism industry, Sports Illustrated, Mike jumped at the chance. All Syracuse was started from scratch by Mike and the Fan Nation team. It has now become a staple for Orange fans of various sports.  Mike has broken news on recruiting, Syracuse basketball and football team information and has established himself as the top recruiting inside in the market. He has appeared on local radio shows, television broadcasts, national radio shows and much more. Mr. McAllister has a Bachelor of Science Degree in Accounting and Information Management from Roberts Wesleyan College.
