HUGE HAUL

The Americans had a huge haul at Olympic Stadium, collecting seven athletics medals on Wednesday night.

Medal winners were:

Allyson Felix (gold) and Carmelita Jeter (bronze) in 200 meters

Aries Merritt (gold) and Jason Richardson (silver) in 110 meter hurdles

Brittney Reece (gold) and Janay DeLoach (bronze) in long jump

Lashinda Demus (silver) in 400 meter hurdles.

Here's what some of them had to say about the big night:

Reece: "This means a lot to our country. We're on track for 30 medals. We're getting some unexpected medals."

Jeter: "The only thing that mattered to me was to get back on that podium, to get us some more medals because I believe China was beating us before we lined up tonight. I definitely wanted to make sure we got our medals up. We collected!"
