Numerous records
Swimming meeting was characterized by a close duel
The 40th swimming meet in Rif is in the history books. Luka Mladenovic also made his mark - once again. The 20-year-old from Salzburg, who is currently completing his basic training as an army athlete, won the overall ranking and secured many new records.
The 40th international Generali Meeting of the Salzburg Swimming Union in Rif brought numerous records. Two athletes stood out in particular: European short course champion Bernhard Reitshammer and Luka Mladenovic. The two fought close duels in many disciplines. Overall, however, the man from Salzburg came out on top with two individual victories (100m dolphin, 200m freestyle), three national records (50m backstroke, 100m backstroke, 100m freestyle) and a new points record in the multi-discipline classification.
"I'm surprised that I was faster than Bernhard Reitshammer," said the 20-year-old in amazement. The man from Linz was a little faster in the 100m backstroke, breaststroke and freestyle, but: "Overall, I'm closer in these distances than in previous years. That motivates me!"
The best lady from Salzburg was 15-year-old Katharina Schiessendoppler, who came sixth overall. "The transition from child to adult swimming is always a challenge for young women," says coach Plamen Ryaskov.
