U.S. women's hockey team brings home the gold
"By the time the clock struck midnight and the pop of champagne corks was heard at the victory party,
the game's particulars had begun to fade from conversation. The feelings were what the U.S. women ice
hockey players wanted to review: the lumps in their throats, the chills that ran down their spines, the
eye-dampening sight of goalie Sarah Tueting high-stepping around the ice like a crazed drum major after
the U.S. won the gold medal game 3-1 against archnemesis Canada."
