COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. – Considered one of the greatest untold stories in Olympic Swimming history, The Last Gold, a feature-length documentary, will air on NBC Sports Network (NBCSN) with limited commercial interruption, on Monday, August 1, at 8:30 p.m. ET/5:30 p.m. PT.
Produced by USA Swimming, The Last Gold details the remarkable efforts of the women’s 1976 U.S. Olympic swim team as it competed against the systematically-doped East Germans. After an entire competition of disappointing results, winning no races and facing critical media that heaped-on additional pressure, the U.S. women rallied together to do as a team what they could not do individually – win gold.
“This film documents an incredible story that many people outside the swimming community may not know, but this telling of The Last Gold is an ideal prelude to the Rio Olympic Games,†said Chuck Wielgus, Executive Director of USA Swimming and Executive Producer of the film. “This topic is as relevant today as it was 40 year ago and the NBCSN broadcast honors those athletes from the 1976 Olympic team who kept their focus and believed that anything was possible.â€
