As a 17-year-old, he won a bronze medal in the 100 metres at the 1994 World Junior Championships, surpassing Henry Thomas's World Youth Best over this distance. Odom was born in Cordele, Georgia, to Lessie Odom, then 16.[1] When he was 4 years old, he moved with family to Philadelphia. He began running as a sixth-grader at Shoemaker Middle School.[2] He later attended Overbrook High School.[3] In the 1995 National Scholastic Indoor Track and Field Championships in Syracuse, New York, Odom set three national records.[4] Although recruited by every major track program in the United States, Odom could not attend college because his academics were subpar. He went to Wallace State Community College in Hanceville, Alabama, where his career derailed.[5] References1. ^{{cite news |url=http://articles.philly.com/1995-04-27/sports/25684448_1_penn-relays-meters-hurdles |title=Overbrook Speedster Is Set For Penn Relays Odom Can Leave The Competition In His Dust |newspaper=Inquirer |first=Sally |last=Pollak |date=April 27, 1995 }} 2. ^{{cite news |url=http://articles.philly.com/1994-05-28/sports/25830689_1_penn-relays-hurdles-public-league |title=Odom Does All He Can To Boost Overbrook |newspaper=Daily News Sports |date=May 28, 1994 |first=Ted |last=Silary }} 3. ^{{cite news |url=http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/vault/article/magazine/MAG1006391/index.htm |title=Faces in the Crowd |newspaper=Sports Illustrated |date=April 3, 1995 }} 4. ^{{cite news |url=https://www.nytimes.com/1995/03/13/sports/results-plus-426595.html |title=Results Plus |date=March 13, 1995 |newspaper=New York Times }} 5. ^{{cite news |url=http://articles.philly.com/1997-04-22/sports/25531999_1_odom-struggles-hurdles-penn-relays |title=His Times Went South In College: Overbrook's Odom Struggles On And Off Track In Alabama |newspaper=Daily News Sports |first=Ted |last=Silary |date=April 22, 1997 }} External links
