The United States women's rugby sevens team captured its first ever Olympic medal on Tuesday in Paris, taking it the length of the field in the final seconds to earn a 14-12 upset victory over Australia.
With the Australian women clinging to a 12-7 lead, American Alex Sedrick, affectionately nicknamed "Spiff," took a loose ball, ran through a defender and took off in a sprint for the score as time expired to tie the match at 12. Sedrick's conversion kick after the score officially clinched the bronze for the United States.
