Popovici is swimming the 400FR here, interesting to see what he can put.

considering his natural speed, if he's in good shape and if he pace himself correctly (and this is a big if...), I'd be surprised if he doesn't go below the 3.45 mark...

WHERE TO SEE THE LIST OF PARTICIPANTS

[Werloc 3,191]

Going to be an interesting championships, Meilutytė, Teterevkova, Rapšys and Šidlauskas can contest for medals and top 8.

 

Navikonis, Sungaila, Pancerevas, Savickas and Grigaitis to round up the Lithuanian team to 9 athletes.

 

Most of them are here so that Lithuania could run the 4x100 and 4x200m Freestyle relays. It's crazy how the 200 free became the most contested discipline among Lithuanian men, because there are at least 4 more junior level athletes focusing on it, so it could become our primary relay.

 

Don't know if we're doing 4x100m medley, somebody would have to be forced to do the butterfly, because we didn't send any butterfly specialist to this competition, but Rapšys, Šidlauskas or Pancerevas can do a passable enough butterfly, but repeating a top 8 is still unlikely.

 

Next European championships we should have even more athletes and a larger women's team, we'll probably be able to run some women's relays as well. 

 

I'll re-update if Lithuania make any changes to our team, since they didn't officially approve it on their webpage.

Here to hope De Waard can medal. Giele or Steenbergen would be nice too.

no Marchand, no Peaty, no Scott...a lot of people not in perfect shape after the recent world champs and/or some sickness...

 

technically, it won't be the best championship ever, but at least I hope Italy can play a super-dominant role...

How on earth is it possible that we start in all possible relays ? 

 

I mean, It is not necessary to meet any qualification criterias or qualification standards for a country to field a relay at the continental championship. I do not know, for example, know how to swim or something like that ?

I'm hoping Steenbergen can win a medal here after her strong world championships with multiple pb's!
