Coverage of the 2015 Pan American Games is sponsored by Triton Wear<\/a>. Visit Swimming World\u2019s event landing page<\/a> for results and more!<\/i><\/p>\n

Mauricio Fiol<\/strong>, the Pan American Games silver medalist in the 200-meter fly, has tested positive for the banned drug Stanozolol and will have to return the medal.<\/p>\n

Fiol tested positive for the drug that has been banned since 1976. \u00a0It is an anabolic steroid.<\/p>\n

Fiol posted on his Facebook page that he unintentionally tested positive, and has accepted being stripped of his silver medal.<\/p>\n

Fiol posted a 1:55.15 to take silver in the 200-meter fly behind Leonardo De Deus<\/strong> for what was then seen as a Peruvian record. \u00a0He also broke the Peruvian record in the 100-meter fly with a 52.25 in prelims, but has been pulled from tonight’s final in that event after qualifying second overall.<\/p>\n

Fiol’s positive drug test is a boon for Canada in the 200 fly, as Zack Chetrat<\/strong> now moves from bronze to silver, while Alec Page<\/strong> moved up from fourth to bronze.<\/p>\n

The silver medal in the 200 fly was Fiol’s first major international medal. He competed at the 2012 Olympics in the 200 fly, finishing 25th overall with a 1:59.02. His national record is likely to return to 1:58.29, which he swam at the 2013 world championships to place 19th overall.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
