Swimming - 2 GOLDS
by Lucy Davies at Kytlerian Sporting College
What an incredible day in the pool for the States! 2 Golds were won by Fenbarric athletes, the first ever in our history! The first event of the day was the blue riband event of the Swimming, the Men's 100m freestyle, and Finn Hastings, who had already won the bronze in the 100m breaststroke, was in lane 2, having qualified 5th fastest. However, there was a great feeling around the DSF swim team that he had a great chance of securing his second medal of the Games, if not the nation's first ever gold. However, he was up against some stiff opposition, including Damiano Pignatelli of Vigorato in lane 3, Brendan Matthews of Wray in lane 5, and Matthew Wheelwright of Estope in lane 4, who had broken the Olympic record in the semi final. The atmosphere in the Sporting College was incredible as the race was started, and Brendan Matthews got a poor start. After the first 25m, as they turned there were 6 swimmers within 0.05 seconds of each other, although Wheelwright had a slight lead over Pignatelli. Hastings had a poor second length however, and was in 6th at the end of it. He managed to drag it back in the 3rd however, and with 25m to go it was a five horse race for the finish. With 10m to go, it had boiled down to three: Hastings, Wheelwright and Pignatelli. The noise was incredible as they stretched for the wall, and as they touched the timings revealed Hastings to be the winner by 0.02 seconds! Wheelwright and Pignatelli were inseparable at the finish, so shared the silver medal. Hastings' final time was 47.04, just 0.09 off of Wheelwright's Olympic Record. At home millions were cheering him on in their living rooms, and viewing figures showed a peak of 63.4 million watching just from the States at the moment of the finish. Crying on the podium as the national anthem rang out for the first time at an Olympics, Hastings was grinning as I interviewed him afterwards. 'I'm just astounded at what I've managed to achieve here,' he said. 'I know I might have snatched this gold from under Matt's nose, but I really don't care that much! I'm Olympic champion, and no one can take that away from me. It was really close again, but I after last time I knew I had to come out on top, and I'm so honoured to have won my country's first ever Olympic gold.' Next up was the 200m Backstroke heats, and Hastings and Steve Pembroke both qualified for the semis, but couldn't manage the final. The same thing was true of Hastings in the 200m IM, but after a few Women's heats came something totally unexpected: the Women's 4x200m freestyle relay team qualified for the final in second place, an amazing achievement. The girls seemed totally astounded, but what they didn't know was what they were about to do next. In the final, Olivia Davis started off incredibly poorly, and the States were in 8th place going into the 2nd leg, but Katie Alexander and Hannah Stevens managed to pull them back, and by Gertude James' leg started, the States were incredibly in third place, behind Saragossa and Wray! Then, with just 50m to go, James started to power through the water, catching up with the leaders. On the final length she was still going, and by halfway she had overtaken both. Gold was an unbelievable result for a team who had never expected to even reach the final. For the second time in a day the States had won a gold medal in the Swimming, and with only a few more events to go, I think we can safely say we have been one of the more successful nations in the pool.
Weightlifting - BRONZE
by Tim McGoogel at Kytlerian Sporting College
Unbelievably there was a third bronze medal in the weightlifting for the States at these Games, as Ariana Smith emulated the successes of India Yeste and Asier Del Gorno by finishing third in the Women's 69 kg category with a final weight of 258 kg. Whilst it was some way off the gold and silver medallists, it was a massive personal best, and showed that the States continue to be a force to reckoned with in the weightlifting. Speaking after the event Smith said 'It's a big shock, I really didn't expect it. I've been in good form for the past few months, but this was really unexpected. I just didn't expect to get bronze. I don't think anyone expected it. I definitely didn't expect it.' I think what was she was trying to say was that she didn't expect it. Elsewhere in the weightlifting, Wilma Rede came 25th in the same category, whilst Philip Bliss came a good 10th in the Men's 85 kg with a lift of 378 kg, and Dave Turner injured himself during his first lift, meaning that he couldn't continue.
Rowing
by Tyrone Kiell at Carva Lake
A number of athletes progressed to the finals of their respective events at the rowing today. First of all Gordon Bridges got through to the final of the Men's single sculls, albeit with the slowest time. Then in the Men's quadruple sculls, the States came dead last in their semi final to get into the B final. This non achievement was emulated by Steve Reed and Mike Ford in the coxless pairs, before Dani Lane qualified 5th fastest for the Women's single sculls final. Next up was Franci Reddy and Nina Trough in the lightweight double sculls, and despite getting a faster time than one of the finalists, they came fourth in their heat, meaning that they were shoved into the B final. The Women's quadruple sculls team succeeded where their male counterparts by qualifying fastest for the final, meaning that they are in a fantastic position to win a medal. The day was finished off with Mo Keen and Nora Batty getting into the B final of the Women's coxless pairs. So a number of rowers still on course for a medal then, so watch this space.
Badminton
by Gordon Ying at the Jamison Expo Centre
Leopold Jaffa and David Christopher continued to surprise a lot of people in the Badminton by progressing to the quarter finals of the Men's Doubles. Their opponents, who were once again from Darmen, put up a tremendous fight though, and must be proud of their performance. The States won the first game 21-17, Leo Jaffa securing several points with some clever shots from the back of the court. Darmen did very well to win the second game 21-19, but ultimately the States were to good, and won through with a 21-14 victory in the final game. Can they continue their incredible run and secure an unexpected medal, or will they crash out in the next round? I can't wait to find out, but I really feel that they do deserve to come away with something.
Tennis
by Gordon Ying at the National Tennis Centre
All four Men's Tennis entries progressed to the third round of the singles competition today. First up was Colin Kostner, who despite going set down, looked good early on, and after nearly being eliminated at 4-0 down in the second, fought back to win 7-5, and then secure a 6-3 win in the third. Vinny Helgo had a much easier match on his hands as he won both sets 6-1, in a demolishing of Edin Marcio. Lawrence Fasder was drawn against the Darmeni player Teutorios Borghi, and despite a straight sets win, he had to fight very hard in both sets, securing the match on a tiebreaker. The States' main hope is Oliver Letwin, and he was the third Fenbarric player to win in straight sets, beating Isano Kolatrenestre 6-4, 6-3, in a fairly comfortable match. I fully expect at least one of these four to bring home a medal, and if they don't, they will have played very poorly from here on in.
Team Sports
by Luc DuChateau in the Kytler Peninsulae
The Men's Basketball team won their third straight match today, as they beat Titaniumland 82-74 to put themselves in with a great shout of qualifying for the next round. They remain the only unbeaten team in Group F, and one more victory will surely see them through. On a less fortunate note the Men's Handball team lost 24-16 to Kelssek, which means that their Games is over at the group stage, although this fledgling squad can take many positives away from the tournament. In the only other match of the day, the Women's Hockey team drew 2-2 with Thatius, but unfortunately it wasn't enough to get them through, as they finished second on goal difference. How unlucky.
Table Tennis
by Gordon Ying at Qizin Studios
Both Eddie Ety and Paul Hinder continued on their merry way in the Men's singles competition today, and though they both dropped two sets on the way, they can both feel very pleased with the way that they have played up to this point. They both look good for a medal, although if you ask me, I would say that Paul Hinder looks the more confident of the two. I fully expect both of them to win their quarter finals, a fact which would guarantee at least a bronze, at most a gold and silver. Expect big things from these two!
Day 7 Preview
by Jamie Partridge in the Kytler Peninsulae
There will be no Games action tomorrow in either Kytler Bay City or Zube due to the continued threat of terrorism, mainly from the state of Gregoryisgodistan, and to a lesser extent The Greater Vakolicci Haven. Events will continue in Aardswood, but there is not much DSF action there, so not much will be happening for us tomorrow. However, I think we can all look forward to the rest of the Games continuing as successfully for us as they have been, and you can catch it all here on DSFsports.com

Extended Report by Jasmine Cladd. Leaders of the group going into the final match, Team WT had every reason to be overconfident, but coach Sophie Brown was all too familiar to overconfidence. Thirty years ago she was a star player in the Archer's Bow Harpies, and being at the top of the league going into the final match against the Fredsdue Doves, overconfidence lost them everything. However, if you'd joined the game halfway through that's what you'd think had happened. The Greater Vakolicci Haven had slipped two balls past goaltender Holly Bird, and a substitution to her twin Molly Bird looked like it wasn't going to work. During half-time coach Brown had a pep talk with the team, and it seemed to work. Quick consecutive goals by Ellen Bone, Tina Manning and Alexandra Parsons put the game back in Team WT's hands, and victory was secured.
Wilfred Test coach Sophie Brown, "Group K, the full nine points. These girls have worked brilliantly, but the octo-finals is where the real game begins, I'm confident in them, but however they do, this is a victory for the sport of hockey in Wilfred Test nonetheless."
Extended Report by Kevin Crawford. If you were outside the Wilfred Test part of the Basketball Stadium today in Zube you would have thought a carnival had been teleported there. Two thousand Testian fans danced and rejoiced in a parade of purple and blue in celebration of what Team WT coach Jake Lynch had called 'the big break'. In other words, the culmination of hours of extra training spent both on the court and on the drawing board. The plan was simple, work on knitting the team together as one unit, and prepare for any eventuality, which translated into a fluidity that had never before been seen in Testian basketball. In the end, a close-knit partnership between Forwards Joel Ball and Tim Cummings brought results for Wilfred Test, and what a result it was, a 98-65 victory against the United Kingdoms of Zacklantis. "We just put it all together and saw how well we could do, how far we could push ourselves and Zacklantis team," said Tim Cummings in an exclusive TBN interview.
Team WT is second place in Group C, but still a daunting 3 points behind leaders Star United States. Chances of winning the group are very thin, but that won't stop the celebrations here.
