A streak is broken.

Two-time defending Olympic beach volleyball gold medalists Kerri Walsh Jennings and Misty May-Treanor lost the first set of their preliminary round match against Austria on Wednesday night — the first time they've lost a set in three Olympics.

But after the 21-17 loss in the first, they came back to win the second by a dominating 21-8 and took the third 15-10 to remain unbeaten in this and every other trip to the Olympic Games.

"I was furious," Walsh Jennings said afterward. "It's still with me. I want to go to the practice court and fix it."
