      A sprint in agile software development is simply a relatively short time period (a few days to a month) in which a set amount of work is supposed to be finished.

      You’re probably referring to a ‘crunch’, although the overtime is (supposed to be) paid.

      “Sprint” is a project management term that describes a focused effort on specific goals, not extra work. It could have been extra work for them, but it would be unrelated to the fact that it was a Sprint.
