Home runs by Travis Lee and Matt LeCroy powered the United States Olympic baseball team to a 7-4 victory over the Japanese Collegiate All-Stars at Miami in a game shortened to six innings by mutual consent. The U.S. has a 16-0 record this season and a 37-game winning streak that dates back to last summer.

Two-time national champion Jessica Davis captured the rhythmic gymnastics competition at Boston and a berth of the U.S. Olympic team. Jovan Kirovski scored on a penalty kick early in the second half to lift the U.S. Olympic soccer team to a 1-0 win over the Mexican Olympic team at St. Louis.
