Rio has been great for Clarkesville’s McKenzie Coan, as she collected her third medal of the games on Thursday night.
Coan, who already won two individual gold medals in the 50-meter freestyle and 400-meter freesytle (with a Paralympic record in the 50-meter), added a silver medal in the 4×100 freestyle on Thursday evening. The U.S. came in second to Australia by a mere four seconds.
