8:30 am: Americans Rogers, Dalhausser win beach volleyball gold
BEIJING (AP) -- Phil Dalhausser blocked out the score, the sun and the Brazilian beat that shook the Olympic beach volleyball gold medal game. Then he blocked just about everything else. Dalhausser rejected three straight shots in the decisive set to turn a tight match into a blowout, then did it again on the championship point on Friday to give the Americans the sport's first Olympic gold medal sweep. "I got in a zone, I guess," Dalhausser said. "I blocked it all out. It's just one of those things where you see everything perfectly and it all seems to be in slow motion." Dalhausser and Todd Rogers beat Brazil's Fabio and Marcio 23-21, 17-21, 15-4, winning their Olympic debuts in classic beach volleyball weather a day after Kerri Walsh and Misty May-Treanor weathered a driving rainstorm to win their second straight gold. It is the third beach volleyball gold for the American men in four Olympics since the sport was added in 1996.
