Maggie Mac Neil added a Pan American Games gold medal to her Olympic gold in the women鈥檚 100-metre butterfly Sunday.

The 23-year-old from London, Ont., set a Pan Am Games record of 56.94 seconds. The Canadian led at the turn and beat runner-up Kelly Pash of the United States by just under a second.

Mac Neil said she was nervous before the race, likely her only opportunity to claim Pan Am gold in her illustrious career.

鈥淚t鈥檚 one of the only titles I didn鈥檛 have yet so I really felt the pressure on myself to get it, but I鈥檓 really happy with that,鈥� said Mac Neil. 鈥淚 haven鈥檛 been under 57 this year so I just want to improve from there. I鈥檓 glad I could do that.鈥�

Canada now has eight gold medals, 5 silver and six bronze for a total of 19. Only the U.S. (19) and Mexico (10) have more gold medals.

Mac Neil was a triple medallist in Tokyo鈥檚 Olympic Games two years ago with butterfly gold, as well as silver and bronze relay medals.

Mac Neil and Harvey earned their second gold medals in as many days Santiago, Chile after helping the women鈥檚 freestyle relay team win on the first day of swimming.

The youngest member of Canada鈥檚 team in Santiago at 13, Toronto skateboarder Fay De Fazio Ebert became the first Pan Am champion in the women鈥檚 park event.

Skateboarding made it鈥檚 Pan Am debut in Santiago.

鈥淚t鈥檚 crazy,鈥� De Fazio Ebert said. 鈥淚 keep getting texts from the friends and family saying 鈥榮o proud of you. You did such a good job.鈥�

鈥淚t really feels amazing.鈥�

Olympic weightlifting champion Maude Charron of Rimouski, Que., earned a Pan Am silver in the women鈥檚 59-kilogram class.

A day after Canadian mountain bikers claimed men鈥檚 and women鈥檚 cross-country gold, another cyclist reached the podium Sunday with Molly Simpson of Red Deer, Alta., taking silver in BMX.

Swimmer Hugh McNeill of 91原创, B.C., added to Canada鈥檚 medal haul at the pool with a bronze medal in the men鈥檚 200-metre backstroke.

鈥淚 feel really good. It was a good race,鈥� said McNeill. 鈥淓ven though I wasn鈥檛 with the top two, being able to compete for the bronze was very good.鈥�
