The oldest member of the United States delegation at the 2022 Winter Olympics earned his first-ever Olympic medal on Day 8 of the Beijing Games.
Snowboarder Nick Baumgartner teamed up with Lindsey Jacobellis to win the mixed team snowboard cross event late on Friday night.
Baumgartner experienced heartbreak in the men's snowboard cross event, as his quest for a medal resulted in a 10th-place finish.
The 40-year-old teamed up with Jacobellis, who earned her first-ever gold medal at 36 in the women's snowboard cross event, to win the fifth American gold in Beijing.
Three of the five golds have come from snowboarding competitions.
