Paralympic gold medallists Ellie Cole<\/strong> and Tiffany Thomas Kane<\/strong>, along with young emerging swimmer Jake Michel, have continued Australia\u2019s positive performance in the pool on the second night of the 2019 World Para Swimming World Series.<\/p>\n

More than 15 years after she began swimming in Frankston, Cole (S9) claimed her first international gold medal in her home town, taking home the top honour in the Women\u2019s 100m Backstroke Multi-Class.<\/p>\n

Recording a time of 1:11.08, the inspirational local edged out fellow Australian Katja Dedekind<\/strong> (S13) (1:09.87) who took home the silver medal in front of France\u2019s Anaelle Roulet<\/strong> (S10) (1:10.56).<\/p>\n

Claiming the title in her home state was a memorable moment for Cole, who dedicated her victory to a very special guest in the stands.<\/p>\n

\u201cI had my niece here tonight and I promised her I\u2019d win gold, obviously it\u2019s out of my hands, so she\u2019s going to be really excited when I take it upstairs and put it around her neck \u2013 hopefully I\u2019ve inspired a future Olympian here tonight, being my niece, no pressure!\u201d Cole laughed.<\/p>\n

\u201cHaving the World Para Series here for the first time is really special, and I think it\u2019s opened the eyes of many Victorians of what Para-swimming is about, which is why I love to swim.<\/p>\n

\u201cTo be here in front of people that I grew up around is really special and to still be swimming 17 years after I started at the same pool is amazing.\u201d<\/p>\n

In the Men\u2019s 100m Breaststroke Multi-Class, 21-year-old Michel (SB14), was the man to beat, recording a time of 1:07.36 to take gold, while Thomas Kane collected her second gold of the meet. After finishing on top of the podium last night in the Women\u2019s 50m Breaststroke Multi-Class, she added the Women\u2019s 100m Breaststroke Multi-Class title to her list of achievements.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m really happy with that race. Coming into this meet, I didn\u2019t know how well I was going to go but to get the time I did and the gold medal in my main event, I\u2019m really happy,\u201d Thomas Kane said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve got my mum and my coach here, so having them behind me made me swim faster.\u201d<\/p>\n

Our Aussies continued to gather momentum on night two of the competition, with Rio Paralympic gold medallist Timothy Disken<\/strong> (S9) taking home silver in the Men\u2019s 50m Freestyle Multi-Class and Rachael<\/strong> Watson<\/strong> (S4) receiving bronze in the corresponding event for the women.<\/p>\n

An elated Disken, who also hails from Melbourne, said he was excited to be competing at an international level in Australia.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s really fantastic to be back on the global stage back in Australia after the Commonwealth Games last year. We\u2019ve got our 2019 Hancock Prospecting Australian Swimming Championships coming up in a few months\u2019 time, and I\u2019m hoping for a spot on the World Champs team and trying and compete against the rest of the world again. I want to be the best athlete I can be and be really ready to take on the rest of the world in Tokyo in 2020.\u201d<\/strong><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

All five events tonight were swum as multi-class races, meaning athletes from all classifications competed in the same event, with the Para-swimmer recording a time closest to their class world record crowned the winner.<\/p>\n

The final day\u2019s action kicks off tomorrow at 9:00am when the Men\u2019s and Women\u2019s 50m Butterfly events begin.<\/p>\n
