Lakeisha Patterson produced a strong display in the women’s S8 100 metres freestyle event, with the double Rio 2016 gold medallist triumphing in 1min 6.19sec.

She was followed by the United States’ Julia Gaffney and Ahalya Lettenberger, with the home swimmers touching the wall in times of 1:15.39 and 1:15.94 respectively.

Patterson, who had already won three races on the first two days of action, then concluded her programme with another victory.

The Australian won the S8 100m butterfly event in 1:18.61, with Canada’s Danielle Dorris provided the closest challenge by ending in 1:22.07.

Colombia’s Laura Rodriguez rounded off the podium by finishing in a time of 1:27.80.

Ellie Cole and Blake Cochrane also impressed for Australia, ending the event with two and four victories respectively.

The hosts continued to earn wins, with double Rio 2016 gold medallist Michelle Konkoly among the stars on the final day.

Konkoly finished in a time of 1:01.75 in the women’s S9 100m freestyle event, with Cole second in 1:03.72.

Cole’s fellow Australian Emily Beecroft secured a third place finish by achieving a time of 1:06.16.

“This swim was awesome,” said Konkoly.

“It was so cool to swim one of my last races of the year against one of my biggest competitors.

“The young kids here are so excited and passionate about Paralympics.

“They’re dropping so much time, and it really makes me excited to see this next generation get ready to fill the gap of some of the people transitioning out of the sport.”

Zachary Shattuck earned two victories on the final day, with the American first winning the men’s S6 50m butterfly in 35.82.

His compatriot Adin Williams was the runner-up in 44.89.
