The whirlwind continues for a Guelph cyclist.
Kiara Lylyk captured gold at the Pan Am Games in Santiago, Chile, as part of the women's team pursuit event Wednesday.
The team of four finished with a time of four minutes and 23 seconds, seven seconds ahead of the second place Mexico.
Lylyk previously told GuelphToday she was called up to participate just three weeks ago.
"Congratulations @KiaraLylyk and team Canada!!," Kiara's dad Dave posted on X shortly after the win.
"You have represented our city and our country (amazingly)," mayor Cam Guthrie said in a video posted to X.
Guelph's Stephen Harris finished just short of the podium in rowing.
He was part of the mixed eight rowing squad that finished fourth with a time of five minutes and 58.70 seconds. It was less than half a second back of Cuba for third place.
Harris also placed fifth in the men's lightweight double sculls event.
