Misty May-Treanor and Kerri Walsh -- Golden

Misty May-Treanor and Kerri Walsh became the first beach volleyball team to repeat as gold metal winners in the Olympics.

May-Treanor and Kerri Walsh won their second consecutive gold medal in beach volleyball Thursday, playing through a steady and sometimes driving rain to beat China in straight sets and extend their winning streak to 108 matches in a row.

The Americans defeated Wang Jie and Tian Jia 21-18, 21-18 to repeat their Athens victory and confirm their dominance of the sport. They did not lose a set in seven Olympic matches,...

Walsh put an early end to China’s chances to add a gold when she quick-hit May-Treanor’s pass between Wang and Tian. The Americans dropped to their knees on the wet sand, hugging each other before shaking hands with the officials and running to the stands to embrace their friends and families.

Misty and Kerri are the best beach volleyball team...Ever!

I would write something about the match but I haven't seen yet, so don't tell me how is comes out.

Hopefully Matt got to see it.

Congratulations to Misty and Kerri!
