USA 101, Spain 72
The U.S. Women's Olympic Basketball Team kept its precious metal streak alive, claiming its sixth straight and eighth overall gold medal with a 101-72 victory over Spain on Saturday afternoon at Barra Carioca Arena 1 in Rio de Janeiro.
The USA squad breezed through the Olympic tournament with an 8-0 record, while Spain fell to 6-2. The victory was the 49th-consecutive and improved the Americans' record to 66-3 all-time at the Games. The U.S. did so by scoring 100 points or more in six of their eight match-ups in Rio, a program record.
Former Tennessee star Tamika Catchings collected her fourth gold medal, as did USA teammates Sue Bird and Diana Taurasi. They joined Teresa Edwards and Lisa Leslie in earning the most golds in USA women's basketball history.
Taurasi and Lindsay Whalen paced five Americans in double figures on Saturday, tallying 17 points each in the 29-point U.S. victory. Catchings was scoreless in seven minutes but grabbed a pair of rebounds in what is expected to be her final Olympic appearance. She previously announced she will retire from the WNBA at season's end.
The USA, which shot a sizzling 59 percent (41-70) for the game, took a while to get going. The Americans led 21-17 after one before pushing the lead to 49-21 at the half with a 28-15 blitz in the second stanza. An even more dominant 32-17 third-period outburst put the game out of reach, at 81-49, with a quarter to go.
Catchings is one of 14 Lady Vols to earn a combined 20 Olympic team berths and is one of nine combining for 14 Olympic gold medals in women's basketball. Other UT gold medalists include Bridgette Gordon (1988), Lea Henry (1984), Chamique Holdsclaw (2000), Kara Lawson (2008), Nikki McCray (1996, 2000), Carla McGhee (1996), Cindy Noble (1984) and Candace Parker (2008, 2012).
The late Tennessee coach Pat Summitt guided the 1984 USA squad to gold in Los Angeles as the team's head coach. Former UT assistant Nancy Darsch was on the bench for both the 1984 and 1996 U.S. triumphs.

Women's 4x100m Relay
Tianna Bartoletta (formerly Tianna Madison) won her second gold medal of the Rio Olympics as the women's 4x100m relay team posted the second fastest time ever recorded in the event's history at 41.01 seconds behind the mark that Bartoletta helped post in the finals of the 2012 Olympics.
Bartoletta ran the opening leg for the USA and easily made up the stagger on the Canadians who were next to the United States in lane 2. The USA started on the inside lane, Bartoletta passed it to Allyson Felix who was followed by English Gardner and Tori Bowie. Bowie's anchor leg secured the USA a second consecutive Olympic gold in the 4x100m relay.
Bartoletta ran the opening leg of the 4x100m relay team at the 2012 London Olympics as that foursome set a world record with a time of 40.82. Earlier this week, Bartoletta claimed another goal winning the long jump with a leap of 7.17m. Bartoletta's third gold medal is the 33rd gold medal and 55th total medal by a VFL or current Tennessee student-athlete.
Men's 4x100m Relay
The United States was disqualified from the 4x100m relay for an exchange outside the zone which cost the team including Justin Gatlin and Christian Coleman a bronze medal. The USA finished in 37.62 behind Jamaica and Japan. Mike Rodgers was ruled to have handed the baton to Justin Gatlin just before the exchange zone on the first handoff, disqualifying the team.
The USA and Jamaica were even through the first three legs including a fast second leg from Gatlin, but Usain Bolt won his ninth career gold medal as he pulled away on the final leg to secure the victory. Japan (37.60) edged the USA and Canada (37.64) in a photo finish at the line.
Rodgers and Gatlin were followed by Tyson Gay who handed off to Trayvon Bromell for the anchor leg.
Gatlin ran the second leg for the USA, stepping into the spot that Christian Coleman ran during the semifinals which helped the team qualify for the finals. Both Gatlin and Coleman were in line to earn a medal for competing in the event before the team's disqualification.

Canada 2, Brazil 1
Rhian Wilkinson and Canada defeated host nation Brazil, 2-1, to win Friday's Bronze medal game. Deanne Rose put Canada on top in the 25th minute and Christine Sinclair provided them with a two-goal cushion by scoring her 11th career Olympic goal early in the second half.
Brazil pulled within a goal after scoring in the 80th minute, but Canada was able to hang on for the victory to finish this summer's games with a 5-1 record. Wilkinson did not see action in today's game but made three starts for Canada in the tournament and earned her second-career Bronze Medal.
With the win, Canada earned its second consecutive Bronze medal in the Olympics after finishing third in London four years ago. This year's team also set the Canadian national record for wins in a calendar year with 15.

USA 86, France 67
A 25-8 outburst in the third quarter helped the U.S. Women's Olympic team break open a four-point game at the half and defeat France (4-3), 86-67, Thursday night at Barra Carioca Arena 1 to earn a spot in Saturday's gold medal game.
With its 48th-straight win in Olympic competition, the USA (7-0) improved to 65-3 all-time at the Games. The American squad will meet Spain (6-1), which defeated Serbia (3-4) earlier Thursday, 68-54.

In its closest contest of the Games, the U.S. managed only a 19-15 advantage after the first quarter. France then followed that by playing the USA even in a 21-21 second stanza that resulted in a 40-36 lead for the Americans at the break. France outscored the U.S. in the fourth period, 23-21, but the third-quarter onslaught by the Red, White & Blue proved too much for the French to overcome.
Track & Field
Men's 4x100m Relay
Current Vol Christian Coleman ran the second leg for the men's 4x100m relay team which won the first heat in 37.65. That time qualified the men's squad for the relay finals tomorrow at 9:35 p.m. ET.
Women's 4x100m Relay
Tianna Bartoletta (formerly Tianna Madison) ran the first leg for the women's 4x100m relay team. Bartoletta staked the USA to a lead after one leg, but the baton was dropped in the second exchange as Allyson Felix was bumped trying to hand off to English Gardner.
The USA filed a protest which was accepted, allowing the Americans to race against the clock in order to secure one of the top eight times posted to claim a spot in the finals. With Bartoletta again running the first leg, the USA notched a time of 41.77, the fastest of any team during the semifinals to ensure a spot in the finals and knock China, the eighth best qualifier, out of the finals. This was the first-of-its-kind Olympic relay against the clock.
Bartoletta will have a chance to go for her third career Olympic medal on Friday night at 9:15 p.m. ET. Bartoletta won a gold medal at the 2012 Olympics as she ran the opening leg of the 4x100m relay team that set a world record with a mark of 40.82. She followed that up in Rio winning a gold medal with a 7.17m long jump. The ceremony for the long jump took place just a few minutes after the USA ran their 4x100m relay alone on the track.
