Matt Centrowitz Takes 1,500; First U.S. Winner Since 1908

"In an action-packed night on the track, Matt Centrowitz held off the closely clustered field in the final straightaway to become the first American man to win the 1,500 meters since 1908."

"And it was another record-setting night for Allyson Felix. She anchored the U.S. to victory in the 4x400 relay victory, giving her a sixth career gold medal, the most ever by a woman in track. She broke her own record, which she set on Friday night as part of the gold-medal winning women's 4x100-meter relay."

"The only American woman to win more gold medals than Felix in any sport is swimmer Jenny Thompson, who has eight."

"Also, Britain's Mo Farah won the 5,000 meters to go with his 10,000-meter title earlier in the games, repeating a difficult double victory in distance running that he also pulled off in London four years ago."
