Biography
Marion Jones was born in Los Angeles, California on October 12, 1975. As early as the age of 5, she was able to outrun her older brothers, and before athletics became a part of her life, she played tetherball with a passion.

She began playing basketball at an early age, and also made it onto her junior high school track team. She won both the 100- and 200-meter sprints at the California High School state meets four years running, between 1990 and 1993. She also won the same events at the USA Juniors meet of '91 and '92, and was named High School Athlete of the Year those same two years.

During the 1992 Olympic trials, 16-year-old Jones finished fourth in the 200m and fifth in the 100m, and declined an offer to run on the 4x100m relay team. She participated in her first World Juniors that same year, where she finished fifth in the 100m and seventh in the 200m, and also played on the U.S. World Junior Championship basketball team. Track & Field News ranked her No. 5 in the U.S. in both the 100m and 200m that year.

Jones graduated from Thousand Oaks High in 1993 and went on to study journalism at the University of North Carolina on a basketball scholarship. She was a star player with the Lady Tar Heels, leading them on to two record-setting seasons, as well as the 1994 NCAA Women's Championships. That same year, she won both the 100m and the long jump at the ACC Championships; in 1995, she repeated her winning performance in the long jump at the same meet.
