Le Clos was well ahead of the rest of the pack, breaking <strong>Jason Dunford\u2019s<\/strong> meet record of 52.13. The rest of the field included an Egyptian national record time of 53.54 from <strong>Omar Eissa<\/strong> for the silver medal. South Africa\u2019s <strong>Nico Meyer<\/strong> was third with a 55.26.<\/p>\n<p>South Africa continued to dominate on the second day in the Congo, winning five more events. <strong>Cameron Van Der Burgh<\/strong> wrapped up his meet with a 27.18 in the 50 breaststroke, a bit off the 26.42 that stands as his lifetime best from the world championships. It did break his meet record of 27.74 from 2011, however. <strong>Youssef Elkamash<\/strong> earned another breaststroke silver medal with a 28.10 to go along with yesterday\u2019s runner-up finish in the 100 breast and just miss his national record of 28.05. Tunisia\u2019s <strong>Wassim Elloumi<\/strong> took third with a 28.62.<\/p>\n<p>After being upset yesterday in the 100 free, <strong>Karin Prinsloo<\/strong> cruised to a win in the women\u2019s 200 free with a 2:00.14, just missing her meet record of 1:59.84. <strong>Marlies Ross<\/strong> gave South Africa a 1-2 finish with a 2:02.61, just barely beating <strong> Majda Chebaraka\u2019s<\/strong> 2:02.63, which broke her own Algerian national record by two seconds.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ayrton Sweeney<\/strong> kept South Africa at the top of the medal stand with a 4:21.83 to win the men\u2019s 400 IM. In a close race for the silver medal, <strong>Pedro Pinotes<\/strong> of Angola placed second with a 4:23.12 ahead of the 4:23.87 by Egypt\u2019s <strong>Ahmed Hamdy<\/strong>. Both swimmers broke national records.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tatjana Schoonmaker<\/strong> was the only swimmer under 2:30 in the women\u2019s 200 breast, capturing gold for South Africa with a 2:28.84. She just missed the meet record of 2:28.00 from 1999 by the legendary <strong>Penny Heyns<\/strong>. Schoonmaker\u2019s teammate <strong> Kelly Gunnell<\/strong> earned silver with a 2:31.52, with <strong>Daniela Lindemeier<\/strong> of Namibia finishing third for bronze with a 2:34.23.<\/p>\n<p>South Africa took down Egypt in the mixed 400 freestyle relay with a 3:31.56 to Egypt\u2019s 3:32.52. Algeria was third with a 3:40.93. The list of swimmers and split times were not immediately available.<\/p>\n<p>Egypt\u2019s <strong>Akram Ahmed<\/strong> was a surprise fourth place in the men\u2019s 1500 freestyle at last month\u2019s world championships, and he kept rolling through a successful summer with a 7:55.36 to lead a 1-2 finish for his nation in the 800 free in Brazzaville. Ahmed split 7:52.50 at the 800-meter mark in that 1500 free final in Russia to set the national record, so he wasn\u2019t able to surpass that today. But it was the first swim under eight minutes at the meet, beating the championship record of 8:02.84 by South African <strong>Troy Prinsloo<\/strong> in 2007. <strong>Marwan Elkamash<\/strong> finished second with a 7:59.54, beating South Africa\u2019s <strong>Devon Brown<\/strong> to the wall by three hundredths of a second.<\/p>\n<p>Egypt\u2019s <strong>Farida Osman<\/strong> won her second gold medal of the meet with a 26.31 to win the women\u2019s 50 butterfly final. Her best is a 25.78, which is the African continental record and was done last month at the world championships. Osman\u2019s time does demolish her own meet record of 27.08 from 2011. South Africa earned silver and bronze in the event, with <strong>Vanessa Mohr<\/strong> taking second with a 26.39 and <strong>Jessica Ashley-Cooper<\/strong> finishing third in 27.02.<\/p>\n<p><a
