	Hughes still stunned by medal she is wearing: 2/23/02
		And no one was more stunned than Hughes, who pulled off one of the biggest upsets in Olympic history by leaping from fourth place to the top of the medals podium.
		When Hughes came off the ice, coach Robin Wagner turned her around to face the arena, held her by the shoulders and had her savor the moment and the scene.

		Sarah Hughes forgot about her placement, or her role in a sport ruled by "supposed to." And in the end, she upset all the predictions and defied all expectations, snatching the gold medal that was assumed to belong to Michelle Kwan and leaving a stunned but ebullient arena in her wake.
		In Tuesday's short program, Hughes was clearly rattled, and she skated like it, producing a clean but somewhat wooden program that nearly included a crash into the boards on a combination jump.
		For Hughes to win the gold, such an unlikely chain of events had to unfold – because she finished fourth in the short program on Tuesday, she would not only have to win the long program, but Kwan, who finished first in the short program, would have to come in third tonight.
