For the eighth time in a row: GOLD!

Today's Olympic results:


The U.S. held off France, 67-66, to take their eighth straight gold medal in an Olympic Games.


It was the slimmest of margins.


In the bronze medal match, Ezi Magbegor lead Australia past Belgium, 85-81.


A'ja Wilson was tournament MVP.....Gabby Williams was the defensive player......best coach was Nigeria's Rena Wakama.


All-second team.


Both the women's and men's tournaments saw record attendance at these Olympics.

 

More Olympic news:

 

Diana Taurasi won an unprecedented sixth gold medal in hoops.


Lauren Jackson ends her Olympic career with a fifth gold medal.


Gold meant more to Brittney Griner, after her detainment in Russia.......she was emotional during the anthem.
