Greatest Athletic Victory in U.S. History

What was it? Not just in terms of the game, but its broader impact.

With the 25th anniversary of the 1980 Miracle on Ice upon us, I'll go with that. I really believe that the game had a huge impact on the psyche of the country and helped Reagan turn the country around. I know the game impacted me personally.

Some other candidates:

Jesse Owens wins Gold at Hitler's Olympics
Joe Louis over Max Schmelling

Any others?
