TOKYO – Gators resumed action today at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, competing in baseball, track & field and golf.

Mark Kolozsvary<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__floridagators.com_roster.aspx-3Frp-5Fid-3D14678&d=DwIFAg&c=sJ6xIWYx-zLMB3EPkvcnVg&r=o5LKAX7slotfFMyE71jI7L22NYBIi1-KbRGNSXudTPo&m=yCH19UufL_eRv3QKx3uU-rRsfXtwMMEcpIHC4BXedWA&s=amGp6OzLgPNzKIK_wKx2JuBX0HNasEMhwK2Ip75lMXI&e= > and Team USA advanced to the gold-medal semifinals at Tokyo 2020 with a 3-1 win over the Dominican Republic on Wednesday morning.

For the fourth time in as many games to open Olympic play, Kolozsvary started behind the plate for the Stars and Stripes. The former Gator caught all nine innings as Team USA pitchers combined for nine innings of one-run ball, allowing just five hits while striking out eight.

Powering the team to a 3-1 record, Kolozsvary has caught all 37 innings for the United States in Tokyo.

With the win, Team USA advances to play Korea in the gold-medal semifinals on Thursday, Aug. 5 at 6 a.m. ET. While a win on Thursday would send the United States to the gold-medal game scheduled for Saturday, a loss would still result in a bid to the bronze-medal game this upcoming Friday.

Fahnbulleh, who was crowned NCAA outdoors champion earlier this year, finished his first Olympic Games setting a new Liberian national record after crossing in 19.98 seconds.

Meanwhile McGee, who got things going for the Gators group Wednesday, ran the 1,500 meters semifinals and finished 24th overall with a time of 4:10.39. McGee seemed to have been tripped during the race but after appealing the results, the Florida record holder advanced to the finals with an “Advanced To Next Round By Referee” designation (qR).
