Olympic Wrap-Up


The United States finished up the shooting events with six total medals. In addition to Hancock's gold, Glenn Eller won gold in the men's double trap. Matt Emmons took silver in men's prone. Kim Rhode won silver in women's skeet. Corey Cogdell won bronze in women's trap. Jason Turner was awarded the bronze in 10-meter air pistol after North Korean Kim Jong Su tested positive for a banned substance. The shooting events also received a fair amount of air time this year. "At the Beijing Olympics, the shooting sports received more network coverage than ever before," said Shari LeGate, NBC's shooting sports analyst. "Every final was streamed live on the NBC Olympic Web site. Women's air rifle and men's trap were broadcast on affiliate stations, along with interviews and highlights of other disciplines. The shooting sports have gained recognition in network television as being broadcast worthy." Get full Olympics coverage at USAShooting.com and NBCOlympics.com.
