After setting an American record in the S9 100 metre freestyle on day one of action, Konkoly continued her fine form to set a Pan American record in the 50m freestyle with a time of 30.06sec.

Another Pan American record fell in the women's S5 100m backstroke event when 2012 US Paralympian Alyssa Gialamas finished in 1min 45.11sec.

Kayla Wheeler, who broke a world record on day one of the Championships, continued her perilous form to set American records in both the women's 50m freestyle S2 in 1:23.97 and the 50m breaststroke SB1 with a time of 2:06.94.

Leslie Cichoki twice broke the American records in the women's 200m individual medley SM14 and S14 100m backstroke, breaking the records first in the preliminary rounds and again the finals.

Her time of 2:45.40 was enough to win her the 200m individual medley with her 1:17.62 in the 100m backstroke only quick enough for second behind Canada's Kristie Kasko.

Still recovering from knee surgery, six-time Paralympic medalist Roy Perkins swam an American record of 1:48.98 in the men's 100m backstroke S5 in the morning before bettering the time in the finals, swimming 1:47.39.

"My goal for this season is to make the Pan Pacs my fastest meet ever," he said.

Duncan Moss repeated this feat in the men's S14 100m backstroke, setting an American record of 1:19.20 in the morning session before improving to 1:18.95 in the finals, despite finishing behind the Canadian trio of Adam Rahier, Gordie Michie and Maxime Rousselle.

In another day that saw her break no records, three-time US Paralympian Jessica Long, who has 17 Paralympic medals to her name, still managed to swim to victory in both the women's 200m IM SM8 and the women's 100m back S8.
