Team BC adds another five medals to bring total to 145

This second to last day of the Games saw the conclusion of swimming with the 5000m long distance race.  This was supposed to be an open water swim but due to the water conditions at the original venue, the race was moved to the Pan Am pool where the athletes completed 100 laps.  
Team BC’s Raben Dommann (North Vancouver) won his fifth gold medal of the Games and completed his sweep of the long distance events.  Acacia Benn (Penticton) added a silver in the 5000m which was her fifth medal of the Games.
