Early life and education

[edit]

Bowie was born on August 27, 1990, inSand Hill, Rankin County, Mississippi.[5] When she was two years old, her mother placed Bowie and her sister into foster care. Her grandmother gained guardianship over her, becoming caretaker, instilling in Bowie a work ethic about which she recounted, "My grandmother's number-one rule was that once you start something, you don't quit...She never let me give up on anything."[5] She attendedPisgah High School where she competed in basketball and track and field.[5][3][6][7] As a junior in 2007, Bowie won Mississippi state high school championships in the 100 m and the long jump;[8] as a senior in 2008, she won state championships in the 100 m, 200 m, and long jump.[9] She also won three state titles in the4 × 100 m relay,[10] as well as competing on the state team inwomen's basketball.[10]

Bowie gained anathletic scholarship to attend theUniversity of Southern Mississippi,[6] doing aninterdisciplinary degree in psychology and social work.[7] She represented theSouthern Miss Golden Eagles and Lady Eagles inNCAA Division I competitions.[10] Doing bothsprints and jumps, she had her best results in the long jump during herfreshman year, coming third at theConference USAindoors,[10] second at the Conference USAoutdoors and reaching theNCAA Women's Outdoor Track and Field Championship,[10] where she jumped in qualifying only.[11] In her second year of collegiate competition, she set her indoor best of 6.23 m (20 ft5+1⁄4 in) in the long jump and was the Conference USA indoor runner-up.[10] At the outdoor Conference USA meet, she came third in the long jump and also made the 100 m final.[10] She finished sixth in the long jump at the NCAA outdoor championship with a mark of 6.26 m (20 ft6+1⁄4 in) in that meet.[12] She also jumped nationally at the2010 USA Outdoor Track and Field Championships, claiming eighth place overall.[13]

During her junior year in 2011, Bowie won both of her two collegiate national titles. She won the long jump at the Conference USA indoor championship, where she was also runner-up in thetriple jump.[14] A jump of 6.52 m (21 ft4+1⁄2 in) was enough to win Bowie her first college title in the long jump at theNCAA Division I Women's Indoor Track and Field Championships,[15] also setting a school record.[16] She was second in both horizontal jumps at the Conference USA Outdoors,[17] then won the NCAA outdoor long jump title with another school record mark of 6.64 m (21 ft9+1⁄4 in).[18] For her achievements she was named the conference female athlete of the year.[18]
