Helen Maroulis pinned Canada's Hannah Taylor in 24 seconds to claim bronze medal in the 57-kilogram freestyle category on Friday, and in doing so became America's first female wrestler to reach three Olympic podiums. Maroulis, 32, said as recently as Thursday she thought she was going to retire. Now, she's not sure what she'll do after winning her second ever bronze. 'I didn't want to just, like, go out there and wrestle scared ... I really wanted to wrestle my very best,' she said. 'And if is this is the last memory I have of myself on the mat, I wanted it to be something beautiful.'
