In the 1920 Antwerp Olympiad, American sprinters were successful, winning both gold and silver medals in the 100- and 200-meter races. The American Olympic team included women swimmers for the first time, and the American women captured the gold, silver, and bronze medals in the 100- and 300-meter freestyle and the gold medal in the 400-meter relay. The U.S. women's diving team swept the fancy diving event by capturing the first four places. American Edward Eagan won the light heavyweight championship of the Antwerp Olympics. In 1932, he was on the four-man bobsled team from the United States that won the gold medal at the Lake Placid Winter Olympics. He is the only athlete to win a gold medal in both the summer and winter Olympic Games.
