NBC TODAY The Last Day of Vancouver

 

Good morning. State of catastrophe. The death toll in Chile rises after that massive 8.8 magnitude earthquake damaged hundreds of thousands of homes and sent tsunami waves as far away as Japan and Russia. Golden boys. The US slides to gold in the four-man bobsled and tying Team USA for the most medals ever won at a Winter Games. This morning, the men of the Night Train show off their gold medals.

 

And Apolo 8. Three Olympics, eight medals, one man, the most decorated Winter Olympian in American history speaks and after his final race and about his place in the record books today, Sunday, February 28, 2010. From NBC News, this is a special edition of TODAY at the Olympic Winter Games with Lester Holt live from Vancouver, British Columbia and Jenna Wolff live from studio 1A in Rockefeller Plaza.

 

Good morning, everyone. Welcome to TODAY on this Sunday morning. I’m Lester Holt live in Vancouver on this the final day of the 21^st Winter Olympic Games. Yesterday Team USA won two more Olympic medals. A four-man bobsled took America’s first gold in the event since 1948. And the speed skating pursuit team took silver. And there are still more medals to be won before the Olympic flame is extinguished later tonight.

 

That is correct. And the question is, who will win gold in the men’s hockey event? Later today the US takes the ice against Canada in a rematch of last week. It’s also a rematch of the 2002 gold medal game where Canada beat the Americans on our home ice in Salt Lake. But win or lose after today, Team USA will have won the most medals ever by any country in the Winter Games. This morning on TODAY’s medal count, Team USA leads the 36 medals. A new record for the United States. Germany is next with 29. Canada is in third place with 25.

 

As we said good bye to Vancouver, preps are already underway for the next Olympic Games. We get more on the 2012 Games in London from NBC’s Michelle Kosenski. Olympic glory burns yet in Vancouver. Those medals still warm in hands that clutch움켜잡다 them. But 4,700 miles away, London is more than busy with the next Olympic Games.
