No turning back: Bromell’s olympic journey starts at Baylor

During his two-year collegiate career at Baylor, Trayvon Bromell built himself a future that only seems to beam brighter as his career goes on.

In late October last year, the 20-year-old Bromell from St. Petersburg, Fla., a junior in college, became a professional sprinter and signed a sponsorship deal with New Balance.

This year, the ultimate goal is the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil, this summer.

In 2014, Bromell highlighted the beginning of his collegiate career at Texas Relays, where he ran 10.01 seconds in the 100-meter race to tie the world junior record.
