Despite the session&#8217;s light schedule featuring only four individual events and two relays, each race was dense with talent, making for a climactic grand finale in Lima. With the U.S. and Brazil rewriting history all week long, this intracontinental showdown managed to make noise even in the aftermath of the World Championships.<\/p>\n<p>Raking in five gold medals, the United States ran away with the final night of competition, seizing a Pan American record on its way out. Showcasing its depth and versatility, America has proven itself to be the strongest swimming nation in the west. With Brazil nipping at its heels, there&#8217;s no doubt that the coming year will be full of surprises, as the swimming community prepares for one of the most awaited summers in the sport&#8217;s history.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lima2019.pe\/en\/results\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Live Results<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.espn.com\/watch\/player?id=7a896911-d139-4601-93ee-8b9d3d526a08\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Live Stream<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/meet\/2019-pan-american-games\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Swimming World&#8217;s Pan American Games Meet Page<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2>Women&#8217;s 1500 Free<\/h2>\n<p>In true form, Argentina&#8217;s distance stalwart <strong>Delfina Pignatiello<\/strong> stole away with the win in the women&#8217;s 1500 free, clocking in at 16:16.54 to better <strong>Kristel Kobrich Shimpl&#8217;s<\/strong> (16:18.19) mark by over a second and a half.

The women upheld their country&#8217;s status with grace, cruising to the victory despite tough competition in Danielle Hanus, Faith Knelson, Haley Black, and Alexia Zevnik of Canada (4:01.90).<\/p>\n<p>Brazil seized the final spot in the top three, clocking in at 4:04.96 courtesy of <strong>Etiene Medeiros, Jhennifer Conceicao, Giovanna Diamante, <\/strong>and<strong> Larissa Martins de Oliveira.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>While the Americans came within striking distance of the Pan Am record (3:56.63) set in 2015, they were ultimately forced to conclude the women&#8217;s schedule by leaving it untouched, tallying the United States&#8217; third gold of the evening nonetheless.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"389899\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/2019-pan-american-games-finals-day-5-live-recap\/screen-shot-2019-08-10-at-11-28-11-pm\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Screen-Shot-2019-08-10-at-11.28.11-PM.png\" data-orig-size=\"623,584\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Screen Shot 2019-08-10 at 11.28.11 PM\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;Screen Shot 2019-08-10 at 11.28.11 PM&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Screen-Shot-2019-08-10-at-11.28.11-PM-623x500.png\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Screen-Shot-2019-08-10-at-11.28.11-PM.png\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-389899\" src=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Screen-Shot-2019-08-10-at-11.28.11-PM.png\" alt=\"Screen Shot 2019-08-10 at 11.28.11 PM\" width=\"623\" height=\"584\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Screen-Shot-2019-08-10-at-11.28.11-PM.png 623w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Screen-Shot-2019-08-10-at-11.28.11-PM-213x200.png 213w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Screen-Shot-2019-08-10-at-11.28.11-PM-300x281.png 300w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Screen-Shot-2019-08-10-at-11.28.11-PM-450x422.png 450w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Screen-Shot-2019-08-10-at-11.28.11-PM-150x141.png 150w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Screen-Shot-2019-08-10-at-11.28.11-PM-500x469.png 500w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Screen-Shot-2019-08-10-at-11.28.11-PM-533x500.png 533w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 623px) 100vw, 623px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Men&#8217;s 400 Medley Relay<\/h2>\n<p>In one of the most exciting races of the meet, the two Pan Am powerhouses squared off in a battle for the last word through the men&#8217;s 400 medley relay. <strong>Daniel Carr, Nicolas Fink, Thomas Shields, <\/strong>and<strong> Nathan Adrian<\/strong> of the United States (3:30.25) combined forces to ultimately take down Brazil&#8217;s deadly quartet, but it would take a Pan American record to do so. Falling behind after the first 100, the U.S. had some ground to cover in the breaststroke and fly legs, especially as the men prepared for Brazil&#8217;s marquee sprinter, <strong>Marcelo Chierghini<\/strong>, at anchor. In true form, Fink and Shields delivered, giving Adrian an adequate advantage headed into the final 100, where the men not only took down their Brazilian rivals, but also shattered the country&#8217;s Pan Am record from 2015.<\/p>\n<p>Had the Americans not had such an incredible performance, Brazil&#8217;s team of <strong>Guilherme Gido, Joao Gomes, Vinivius Moreira, <\/strong>and<strong> Marcelo Chierghini<\/strong> would have also slashed the previous Pan Am record with their time of 3:30.98, over a second and a half faster than the previous mark.<\/p>\n<p>The two teams ran away from the rest of the field, as <strong>Agustin Hernandez, Gabriel Morelli, Santiago Grassi, <\/strong>and<strong> Federico Grabich<\/strong> took third honors for Argentina with a time of 3:38.41. A case study for the unraveling of the entire meet, this event left spectators giddy for the coming year, as the summer season comes to a close and ushers in some of the most anticipated months of competition to date.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"389907\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/2019-pan-american-games-finals-day-5-live-recap\/screen-shot-2019-08-10-at-11-53-34-pm\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Screen-Shot-2019-08-10-at-11.53.34-PM.png\" data-orig-size=\"650,579\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Screen Shot 2019-08-10 at 11.53.34 PM\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;Screen Shot 2019-08-10 at 11.53.34 PM&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Screen-Shot-2019-08-10-at-11.53.34-PM-650x500.png\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Screen-Shot-2019-08-10-at-11.53.34-PM.png\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-389907\" src=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Screen-Shot-2019-08-10-at-11.53.34-PM.png\" alt=\"Screen Shot 2019-08-10 at 11.53.34 PM\" width=\"650\" height=\"579\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Screen-Shot-2019-08-10-at-11.53.34-PM.png 650w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Screen-Shot-2019-08-10-at-11.53.34-PM-225x200.png 225w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Screen-Shot-2019-08-10-at-11.53.34-PM-300x267.png 300w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Screen-Shot-2019-08-10-at-11.53.34-PM-450x401.png 450w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Screen-Shot-2019-08-10-at-11.53.34-PM-150x134.png 150w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Screen-Shot-2019-08-10-at-11.53.34-PM-500x445.png 500w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Screen-Shot-2019-08-10-at-11.53.34-PM-533x475.png 533w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After a thrilling four days of competition, the 2019 Pan American Games kicked off its final night with an interesting slate of events.
