Rio 2016 Day 5: Adrian and Prenot in finals, medalling chance for Missy Franklin and Runge

It is no stretch for the Calympians to win 4 medals today.

Golden Bears may not have added to their medal count on Day 4, but several of them moved closer toward winning an Olympic medal.

Alex Morgan and the U.S.A. Women’s Soccer team sealed up a Group G win with a surprising 2-2 against Colombia. Both Nathan Adrian, the defending champ from 2012 London, and Josh Prenot, the American Record holder who posted the 2nd fastest time ever, has advanced to the finals of their events, 100 Free and 200 Breast, respectively, tonight.

What that means is that Day 5 could be just the best night for Calympians yet in Rio 2016.
