Marion Jones, a two-sport star at the University of North Carolina and an Olympic hopeful as a sprinter, re-injured her left foot and will undergo corrective surgery.

Jones was a guard on the North Carolina women’s basketball team before announcing she would sit out this season to concentrate on making the Olympic track and field team.

But during running drills last Friday, she broke her fifth metatarsal bone in her left foot.
